If the battery is leaking or its case is cracked, put on protective
gloves to handle it, and discard it immediately. Always dispose of

regulations. Put insulating tape, such as cellophane tape, on the
electrode during transportation to avoid a possible short circuit, fire
or electric shock. Failure to do so could possibly result in serious
injury.
