WARNING Risk of burns and poisoning due to the anti-glare mirror electrolyte
Electrolyte may escape if the glass in an automatic anti-glare mirror breaks.

The electrolyte is harmful and causes irritation.

It must not come into contact with your skin, eyes, respiratory organs or clothing or be swallowed.

  • If you come into contact with electrolyte, observe the following:
    • Rinse the electrolyte from your skin and seek medical attention immediately.
    • If electrolyte comes into contact with your eyes, rinse them thoroughly with clean water and seek medical attention immediately.
    • If the electrolyte is swallowed, immediately rinse your mouth out thoroughly. Do not induce vomiting.

      Seek medical attention immediately.

    • Immediately change out of clothing which has come into contact with electrolyte.
    • If an allergic reaction occurs, seek medical attention immediately.
