2. Informazioni sulla sicurezza
Always observe the following safety precautions when handling, installing, or maintaining sealed lead acid batteries:
- Protezione degli occhi: Quando si lavora con le batterie, indossare sempre protezioni per gli occhi adeguate (occhiali di sicurezza o maschere).
- Protezione della pelle: Wear gloves to protect hands from potential acid exposure, although these are sealed batteries, caution is advised.
- Ventilazione: Ensure adequate ventilation when charging batteries to dissipate any gases that may be produced.
- Cortocircuiti: Avoid short-circuiting battery terminals. This can cause severe burns, fire, or explosion. Do not place tools or metal objects on top of the battery.
- Ricarica: Use only chargers specifically designed for sealed lead acid batteries with appropriate voltage and current ratings. Overcharging can damage the battery and pose a safety risk.
- Disposizione: Do not dispose of batteries in fire. Batteries contain lead and sulfuric acid and must be recycled according to local regulations.
- Danno: Do not use batteries that show signs of damage, swelling, or leakage.
