in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or
removing the battery from the charger may ignite the dust or fumes.
• If battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash
area with mild soap and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water
over the open eye for 15 minutes or until irritation ceases. If medical attention
is needed, the battery electrolyte for Li-ion batteries is composed of a mixture
of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
