DESCRIPTION:

Each year, roughly 6,000 eye injuries result from working with auto batteries. Prevent Blindness created this month to educate consumers on the dangers of auto batteries and how to avoid eye injuries.

The organization recommends the following seven tips to prevent eye injury:

BATTERY SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

To prevent an accident that could cause serious eye injuries, you should
follow several safety precautions when jump-starting, inspecting, or
testing the battery.

1) Protect your eyes with ANSI Z-87.1 splash-proof safety goggles
when working on or near a battery.

2) Never work on a battery near an open flame, such as a match, lighter, or cigarette. Batteries contain hydrogen and oxygen; a spark could
ignite them, causing the battery to explode.

3) Check the battery for damage—cracks, corrosive materials, and loose
wires, once a month.

4) Ensure your jumper cables are rust and corrosion-free with no
exposed wires. Cables repaired with electrical tape are unsafe.

5) Do not drop metallic objects on a battery, as a spark can ignite the
gases produced by the battery.

6) When jump-starting, inspecting, or testing your battery, never lean over
the battery—even if you wear safety goggles. The battery could
explode and damage your face and body.

7) Squeezing the battery casing may cause the sulfuric acid stored
inside the battery to spill through the vents. Use a battery carrier when
available, and always handle it with extreme care.
