Before charging a storage battery, check the electrolyte
fluid level in all the cells. (Sealed batteries do not require
checking). Add distilled water to each cell if necessary, to bring
the level back up to the manufacturer’s required level.

EXPLOSIVE hydrogen gas while charging. Do
not allow smoking, open flames, sparks, or
spark producing equipment in the area while
