• Immediately discontinue use of a battery if, while using,
charging, or storing the battery, the battery emits an
unusual smell, feels excessively hot (note that it is normal
for a battery to feel warm), changes color or shape, or
appears abnormal in any other way.
• In the event a battery leaks and the fluid gets into your
eye, do not rub the eye. Rinse well with water and
immediately seek medical care. If left untreated, the
battery fluid could cause damage to the eye.
