Safety instructi
• The lithium-ion batteries described in the product safety data sheet are sealed
units which are not hazardous providing they are used in accordance with the
manufacturer's recommendation.
• Under normal operating conditions the electrodes and liquid electrolytes do not
come into contact with the environment. This requires the battery and seals to
remain intact.
• There is only a hazard risk in the event of misuse (mechanical, thermal,
electric), which leads to actuation of the safety valves and/or the bat
breaking off. Depending on the circumstances, this may result in electrolyte
leaking, a reaction of the electrodes with humidity/wat
vent/explo
• The battery must not be opened, dismantled, soldered or dropped.
• Protect the battery against short-circuits – risk of explosion!
• Protect the battery from rain and do not immerse it into liquids – risk of short-
circuit.
• Protect the battery from direct sunlight, heat and fire.
• Never throw the battery into a fire – risk of explosion!
• Do not use faulty, leaking or misshapen batteries. Always check batteries for
outer signs of damage. Replace if in doubt.
• Battery is fragile – handle with care.
• Protect the lithium-ion battery from microwaves and high pressure.
• The battery must be protected f

• Do not use any battery which does not appear normal (misshapen, unusual
smell etc.).
• Only use John Deere or SABO original batteries. There is a risk of serious
injuries if other batteries are used. In this case, neither John Deere or SABO
will accept liability. The mower warranty becomes invalid if batteries other than
those from John Deere or SABO are used.
• Only use the battery for the original purpose.
• If the charger supply cable is damaged, the cable must be replaced
immediately.
• If the battery is damaged, its contents can leak.
• Contact can lead to skin irritation, burns and chemical burns.
• Do not inhale any fumes which are produced or emitted.

Measures
Pos: 22.14 /In
First-aid measures:
The corrosive fumes irritate the skin, eyes and mucous membranes in the event of
contact with the internal components. Eczema, skin allergies,
and other respiratory illnesses can occur.
• Skin contact : Rinse the parts of the skin affected for at
plenty of clean, lukewarm water. If the irritation, injury or pain persists, consult
a doctor.
• Contact with the eyes : Rinse out for at least 30 minutes wit
lukewarm water, without rubbing the eyes. Consult a doctor without delay.
• Inhalation : If a batt
Go out into the fresh air immediately. If the irritation persists, consult a doctor.
• Swallowing : If the contents are swallowed, damage to tissue in the throat,
stomach and the respiratory systssible. Consult a doctor immediately.
Medical information: Hazardous substances include:
Cells which contain electrolyte with a corrosive alkali effect
(lithium salt in organic solvents) with Li, Ni and Co/LiMn oxide cathode; but neither
lithium metal nor lithi
Measures following unintentional release:
On land: Use sand to absorb the electrolyte fluid and put it into a suitable container
and call the local fire brigade / police.
In water: If possible, remove from the water and call the local fire brigade / police.
Wear protective clothing:
• face mask for organic gases
• safety
• gloves
In compliance with legislation, hazardous waste must be disposed of at special
waste collection points (disposal code EAK: 16 06 05 or 20 01 34).
Measures to be taken in the event of a fire:
In the event of a fire, before the fire brigade arri
If a a lithium-ion battery is involved in a fire, douse the area with water. If the battery
is burning, water may not be sufficientit out, but it will cool other batteries
nearby and stop the fire from spreading.
CO2, dry chemicals and foam fire extinguishers are particularly suitable for smaller
fires, but may not be sufficient for extinguishing t
this case, the battery will burn out.
Practically all fires involving lithium-ion batteries can be extinguished with water.
However, this should only be done by trained personnel with sufficient
amounts of water. It must be remembered, however, that
result in the formation of hydrogen, which forms an explosive mixture with air.
LITH-X- (graphite powder) or copper powder fire extinguishers, sand, ground
dolomite or sodium carbonate can also be used. These materials have a smothering
effect.
