store a battery low in electrolyte or in a low state of charge.
n
Recharge a battery not in use every 1 to 2 months.
n
If possible, store the vehicle in a cool, dry place.
If the batteries are removed from the vehicle, do not place them directly on the ground,
concrete or solid metal surface. It is recommended to store them on a wooden pallet or
equivalent.
Do not overfill the battery. An overfilled battery may leak acid.
Explosive mixtures of Hydrogen gas are present within battery
cells at all times. Do not work with or charge battery in an area
where open flames (including gas furnace or water heater
pilots), sparks, cigarettes, or any other sources of combustion
