Caution: the battery gas can explode. Keep candles and flames away from the
battery. Use an electric torch to check the electrolyte level.
The sulfuric acid in the electrolyte is poisonous. It is strong enough to burn skin,
cause damages to clothing and blindness if it comes into contact with eyes.
In order to avoid personal injuries:
a. Place the battery in a ventilated area;
b. Wear the required PPE such as safety glasses and rubber gloves.
If the battery fluid comes into contact with the skin or clothing, immediately
rinse with water, then wash thoroughly with soap. If it comes into contact with
the eyes, immediately rinse them with clean water for 15 minutes and then seek
medical attention.
Follow the steps below to check and refill the battery fluid:
a. Make sure to turn the engine off and the ignition key to OFF position.
b. Disconnect the battery switch.
c. Remove the terminals.
d. Remove the battery fluid caps.
e. Add distilled water if needed (the battery fluid level should always be between
the minimum and maximum indicated on the battery itself). Make sure to
check this before charging the battery.
f. Close the caps again.
