BATTERY
Carefully read (MAINTENANCE).
After the first 625 mi (1,000 km) and every 3,750 mi
(6,000 km) thereafter, check the electrolyte level and
make sure the terminals are firmly tightened.
Danger of fire.
Fuel and other flammable substances must be
kept away from electrical components.
Battery electrolyte is toxic, caustic and may burn
in contact with the skin, since it contains sulfuric
acid. Wear protective clothing, a face mask and/or
safety goggles when performing maintenance.
If any electrolyte fluid comes into contact with the
skin, rinse thoroughly with cool running water.
Should it accidentally contact your eyes, flush
immediately with running water for fifteen min-
utes, then immediately seek professional medical
attention.
Should you accidentally swallow battery electro-
lyte, drink large amounts of milk or water, then
continue with milk of magnesia or vegetable oil.
See a physician immediately.
Since the battery gives off explosive hydrogen
gas, keep away from open flames, sparks or
cigarettes, or any other source of heat.
Make sure the area is adequately ventilated during
recharging or while running the engine; avoid
inhaling the fumes emitted while recharging the
battery.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
Be careful not to tilt the vehicle too far, to avoid
hazardous battery fluid leaks.
Never reverse the battery cable connections.
Connect and disconnect the battery with the
ignition switch set to “ ” to avoid damaging
certain components.
Connect first the positive cable (+), then the
negative (–).
Disconnect in reverse order.
The battery fluid is corrosive.
Do not spill or spatter it, especially on plastic
parts.
If you are installing a “MAINTENANCE-FREE”
battery, recharge using a specifically designed
battery charger (with constant voltage/amperage
or constant voltage).
Using a conventional battery charger could dam-
age the battery.
