Check the condition of the battery
monthly. You should check the color
of the test indicator window, and
for corrosion on the terminals.
Check the battery terminals for
corrosion (a white or yellowish
powder). To remove it, cover the
terminals with a solution of
baking soda and water. It will
bubble up and turn brown. When
this stops, wash it off with plain
water. Dry off the battery with a
cloth or paper towel. Coat the
terminals with grease to help
prevent future corrosion.
If the terminals are severely
corroded, clean them with baking
soda and water. Then use a wrench
to loosen and remove the cables
from the terminals. Always
disconnect the negative ( — ) cable
first and reconnect it last.
Clean the battery terminals with a
terminal cleaning tool or wire
brush. Reconnect and tighten the
cables, then coat the terminals
with grease.
If you need to connect the battery
to a charger, disconnect both
cables to prevent damage to the
car's electrical system.
