54G118
For maintenance-free battery (cap-less
type), you need not add water. For tradi-
tional type battery, which has water filler
caps, the level of the battery solution must
be kept between “MAX” and “MIN” level
lines at all times. If the level is found to be
below “MIN” level line, add distilled water
to “MAX” level line. You should periodically
check the battery, battery terminals, and
battery hold-down bracket for corrosion.
Remove corrosion using a stiff brush and
ammonia mixed with water, or baking soda
mixed with water. After removing corro-
sion, rinse with clean water.
If your vehicle is not going to be driven for
a month or longer, disconnect the cable
from the negative terminal of the battery to
help prevent discharge.
