2.2 Label elements
Not applicable The materials in these Li-Ion batteries are hermetically sealed in a case and do not leak electrolyte under normal usage conditions. However, if exposed to a fire, explosion, extreme abuse, misuse or improper disposal that results in breaching of the battery cell case, hazardous materials may be released. Also, battery terminal contact with other metals may generate heat or cause electrolyte leakage. Electrolyte is flammable. Direct contact with electrolyte may cause severe irritation and chemical burns. Short- term skin exposure may cause chemical burns and sores. Inhalation and injection are not anticipated routes of exposure with leakage of small amounts of electrolyte.
