Have fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid
contacts skin, clothing or eyes.

contacts skin or clothing. If acid enters eye, flush eye
immediately with cool, clean running water for at least
15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention.

bracelets, necklaces and watches. A lead acid
battery can produce a short-circuit current high enough
to weld a ring or similar to metal, which would cause
severe burns.
