The battery referenced herein is defined as an exempt "article" and is not subject to
the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Hazard
Communication Standard 29 CFR Subpart 1910.1200(g). This information is
provided as a service to our customers.

2. Hazard Identification:
Batteries consist of one or more cells which contain chemical materials stored in a hermetically sealed metal case, designed to
withstand temperatures and pressures encountered during normal use. As a result, during normal use, there is no physical danger of
ignition, explosion or release of hazardous chemical materials. However, if exposed to fire, added mechanical shocks, added electric
stress by misuse, the gas release vent will be operated. The battery cell case may be breached at the extreme and hazardous materials
may be released including acrid or harmful fumes.

Primary routes of entry: Skin contact, skin absorption; eye contact, inhalation and ingestion:
Skin absorption: No effect normal use, however exposure to electrolyte may cause dermatitis.
Eye contact: No effect under normal use, however electrolyte may damage the cornea.
Inhalation: No effect under normal use, however fumes may irritate the lungs.
Ingestion: No effect under normal use, however ingestion of the electrolyte may irritate the mouth and lungs and cause nausea.
Reported as carcinogen: Not applicable

4. First Aid Measures:


Inhalation: Not anticipated. If battery is leaking, contents may be irritating to respiratory passages. Remove to fresh air and seek
medical attention if necessary.
Skin contact: Not anticipated. If battery is leaking, wash exposed skin with copious quantities of water. If irritation or pain
persists, seek medical attention.
Eye contact: Not anticipated. Do not rub one's eyes. Immediately flush eyes with copious amounts of water
for at least 15 minutes. If irritation continues seek medical attention.
Ingestion: Not anticipated. Contact the National Capital Poison Center (NCPC) at 202-635-3333 (collect) or your local poison center
immediately.

5. Fire Fighting Measures:


Extinguishing Media: Dry Chemical, alcohol resistant foam, CO2 extinguishers or halon. Large amounts of water can also be used to
cool down burning Lithium-ion cells and batteries.
Firefighting Equipment: Detailed information on fighting a lithium-ion battery fire can be found in Guide 147 (Lithium-Ion
Batteries) of the US DOT Emergency Response Guide.

6. Accidental Release Measures:


Not a likely event.
On Land: Place material into suitable containers and call local fire/police department.
In Water: If possible, Remove from water and call local fire/police department.

7. Handling and Storage:


Handling:
Do not crush, pierce or expose the battery to excessive physical shock or vibration. Do not short circuit the (+) and (-) terminals with
conductive materials such as metal coins, jewelry, metal tables or other cells and batteries. However, accidental short-circuiting for a
few seconds will not seriously affect the battery. Prolonged short circuits will cause the battery to rapidly lose energy, could generate
enough heat to burn skin or explode. To minimize risk of short-circuiting, use the retail carton supplied with the battery or cover the
terminals with tape when transporting or storing the battery. Do not disassemble the battery.

Storage:
Store Lithium-ion cells and batteries in a dry, well-ventilated place between temperatures of -20°C and +35°C; and at a relative
humidity of 45% to 85%. When stored for a long period of time batteries should be between 25% and 75% state of charge.

8. Exposure Controls and Personal Protection:


Engineering Controls: Keep away from heat and open flame. Store in a cool dry place
Personal Protection: Not required for handling of battery.
Respirator: Not required during normal operations. SCBA required in the event of a fire.
Eye/Face Protection: Not required beyond safety practices of employer.
Gloves: Not required for handling of battery.
Foot Protection: Steel toed shoes recommended for handling large pallets.

10. Stability and Reactivity:


Stability: Product is stable under the conditions described in Section 7.
Conditions to avoid: None during normal operation. Avoid exposure to heat above +70° C, open flame, crushing, piercing,
deforming, mutilating, short circuit and exposure to long periods of high humidity.

11. Toxicological Information:


This product does not emit toxicological properties during routine handling and use. If battery ruptures, overexposure to internal
contents and corrosive fumes may irritate eyes, mucous membranes, skin and lungs. See Section 4.

12. Ecological Information:


Lithium ion battery packs pose no risks to persons, plants or animals.
