Insert the caps into the filler holes, pressing in firmly
so that the top of the each caps does not protrude
above the upper surface of the battery’s top cover.
A: Caps
Using multi circuit tester, measure the battery volt-
age. The tester should indicate more than 12.5–12.6
V (DC) as shown in the Fig. If the battery voltage is
lower than the specification, charge the battery with a
battery charger.
Recharging time:
4.0 A for one hour or 0.9 A for 5–10 hours
After filling the battery electrolyte or charging battery,
install the battery in the vehicle as follows.
NOTE:
If no air bubbles are coming up from a filler
port, tap the bottom of the container two or
three times. Never remove the container from
the battery.
Never use anything except the specified bat-
tery electrolyte.
Once the sealing cap has been installed in the
battery, do not remove the sealing cap.
NOTE:
Initial charging for a new battery is recom-
mended if two years have elapsed since the
date of manufacture.
When attaching the wiring harness battery
leads to the battery terminals, observe the cor-
rect polarity.
NOTE:
The terminal bolts and nuts are attached to the
battery.
