Note) Our battery is not classified in accordance with the GHS classification. 3. Composition/ information on Ingredients Part Material CAS No. Contents Remarks Positive electrode Manganese Dioxide ~ 45 wt% Negative electrode Lithium metal ~ 4 wt% Electrolyte 1,2-Dimethoxyethane ~ 8.5 wt% Mixture of organic solvent - 10 ~ 20 wt% FDK CORPORATION

2 Manganese Dioxide Primary Lithium Battery 2/4 Document Number: SDS E First-aid measures Inhalation Skin contact Eyes contact Swallowing If ingredient leaked out from inside of a battery and if inhaled it, move to a place where fresh air is provided. Refer for medical attention. If ingredient leaked out from inside of a battery and stuck on skin, wash the contact areas off immediately with plenty of water and soap. If appropriate procedures are not taken, this may cause sores on the skin. Refer for medical attention. If ingredient leaked out from inside of a battery and came into eyes, flush the eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes immediately without rubbing. Take a medical treatment. If appropriate procedures are not taken, this may cause an eye irritation. In case of swallowing of battery, immediately refer for medical attention. 5. Fire-fighting measures Fire extinguishing agent: Dry chemical, alcohol-resistant foam, powder, atomized water, carbon dioxide and dry sand are effective. Extinguishing method: Escape batteries to safe place prevent from ignition by spreading fire. Because packaging material of battery is paper, use water extinguisher, CO2 extinguisher or powder extinguisher as normal extinguisher. Since vapor, generated from burning batteries may make eyes, nose and throat irritate, be sure to extinguish the fire on the windward side. Wear the respiratory protection equipment in some cases. 6. Accidental release measures Chemical contents are sealed in metal can. But if the battery is mechanically or electrically abused, contents may leak out. In such case, take action as showing below. Personal precautions: Temporary inhalation of odor and attaching of electrolyte to skin does not cause serious health hazard. Be sure the ventilation and washing out of electrolyte quickly. Environmental precautions: Clean up it quickly. Specific environmental precaution is not necessary. Method and materials for containment and methods and materials for cleaning up: Contain and collect spillage and place in container for disposal according to local regulations. 7. Handling and storing Handling Do not charge, short-circuit, disassemble, deform, heat above 100 or incinerate. Do not pile up or mingle batteries with each other. Do not place battery on metal case, metal plate or antistatic material. In case of multi cell application, replace all batteries to new at once when replacing used batteries. Storage Be sure to store batteries in well-ventilated, dry and cool conditions. Keep away from water, rain, snow, frost or dew condensation. Do not store batteries near source of heat or nozzle of hot air. Do not store batteries in direct sunshine. Take care not to get wet packing by dew condensation when packing is removed from cold to warm and humid condition. Enough number of fire fighting apparatuses should be installed in warehouse. 8. Exposure controls and personal protection There is no need of personal protective equipment on regular handling and storage. In the event, however, a large amount of electrolyte should be released by mechanical or electrical abuse, use the protections as shown below.
