Before testing make sure the battery terminals are really clean as grease and dust
could lead to errors in the test results. The battery MUST be disconnected prior
to cleaning. Check the battery and connections for any cracks or damage before
proceeding with cleaning and testing. To help ensure a good connection of the
battery terminal clamps, clean the battery terminals with a solution of baking soda
and water, and wipe the battery terminals with a cloth to remove any dirt and
grease.
If the battery is still fitted to a motor vehicle, make sure that all the electronics are
turned OFF, and that the ignition is turned OFF
