Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Sealed VARTA rechargeable nickel metal hydride button cells are not hazardous in normal use (as defined in section 7). In case of mistreatment (abusive overcharge, prolonged deep discharge, reverse charge, external short circuit, drop ...) and in case of fault, some electrolyte can leak from the cell. In these cases refer to the risk of potassium hydroxide solution (corrosive, pH > 14). The electrode materials are only hazardous, if the materials are released by mechanical damaging of the cell or if exposed to fire. In case of mistreatment (abusive overcharge, external short circuit, drop ...) and in case of fault cells may generate heat.
