5.1 BATTERY CARE AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING
∆
…. In order to prevent a battery explosion that could result in severe physical injury or
death, DO NOT work on the batteries using metal (conductive) objects that could create a connection
between battery terminals without first insulating the metal object in a manner that will eliminate the
possibility of shorting between two battery terminals. Vinyl tape may be used to insulate metal surfaces
for this purpose. Never smoke or have an open flame or the potential for an electrical arc present in the
vicinity of the batteries.
▪ Inspecting the batteries
o Inspect the outside appearance of the batteries. The top surface of the batteries should be
clean, dry and free of dirt or corrosion.
o Check all battery cables and connections. Any damaged cables should be replaced. Any loose
connections should be tightened.

Rinse the batteries with water and dry with a cloth.
