• Always use the proper charger and the charging regulations set by C&R. Not following our guidelines and procedures, or using non-approved charging procedures, can cause the battery to leak acid, heat up, or cause a destructive fire.

•When our batteries are used for medical applications, please be aware of the possibility that the battery could fail. Back-up units should be in place to prevent injuries.

• The container cannot come in contact with metal products. Please use insulated material that has acid and heat resisting characteristics to be the battery container. Not using insulated materials may cause fire or an explosion by leaking.

• Do not install batteries close to any location where a spark may occur such as a switch or a fuse. Sparks may cause fire or an explosion.

• Always wear insulated gloves during any battery servicing activities, otherwise you could get an electrical shock.

• Do not install a battery in a high traffic area without adequately protecting the battery. Not doing so could cause an electrical shock or fire in case the battery is disturbed or dislodged.

• Do not burn the battery or throw it into a fire. Doing so may cause the battery to explode and toxic gas to be released.

• Do not disassemble, reassemble or destroy the battery. Doing so could cause the acid inside the battery to leak and cause severe burns or other accidents.

• Do not use any dry fabric or other materials to clean the battery that could cause static electricity. Always use a damp cloth that has had the moisture wrung out of it.

• The battery should be replaced before the expiration date. Upon installation a log of expiration dates should be kept in a handbook or on front of the machinery.

• When the battery's performance has only 50% left at 25,the battery should be replaced. The battery's life will curtail one half with a raise of each 10 in temperature. If the discharging current is higher than 0.25CA, the battery's life will be shorted.

• When the battery approaches the end of its life, its performance will decrease very fast. The internal exhausted electrolyte and the corrosion of the positive plate may cause a failure. If the battery continues in operation under these conditions, there could be extreme heat, leaking of even explosion.

• There is sulfuric acid inside of the battery. Please use water if skin or clothes become contaminated by the acid. If acid gets into your eyes, use ample clean fresh water to flush your eyes and seek immediate medical attention.
