WARNING

Follow These Precautions Carefully:

To ensure safe and correct handling of the battery, read the following precautions

carefully before using the battery or inspecting it.

Keep ﬂames and sparks away from open battery cells and do not allow

metal tools to contact the positive (+) or negative (–) terminal of the battery when

working near a battery. Do not allow the positive (+) terminal to contact the

vehicle body:

Flames and sparks near open battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas, produced

during normal battery operation, could ignite and cause the battery to explode. An

exploding battery can cause serious burns and injuries. Keep all ﬂames including

cigarettes and sparks away from open battery cells.

Keep all ﬂames and sparks away from open battery cells because hydrogen

gas is produced from open battery cells while charging the battery or adding

battery ﬂuid:

Flames and sparks near open battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas, produced

during normal battery operation, could ignite and cause the battery to explode. An

exploding battery can cause serious burns and injuries. Keep all ﬂames including

cigarettes and sparks away from open battery cells.

Do not jump-start a frozen battery or one with a low ﬂuid level:

Jump-starting a frozen battery or one with a low ﬂuid level is dangerous. It may

rupture or explode, causing serious injury.
