CHECKLIST B PROCEDURES
10 Check the ambient air temperature and adjust
the specific gravity reading for each cell as
follows:
• Add 0.004 to the reading of each cell for
every 10° / 5.5° C above 80° F / 26.7° C.
• Subtract 0.004 from the reading of each cell for
every 10° / 5.5° C below 80° F / 26.7° C.
Result: All battery cells display a specific gravity
of 1.277 or greater. The battery is fully charged.
Proceed to step 11.
Result: The difference in specific gravity
readings between cells is greater than 0.1 OR
the specific gravity of one or more cells is less
than 1.177. Replace the battery.
11 Check the battery acid level. If needed,
