Battery recharging precautions

During recharging, the battery is pro-
ducing hydrogen gas.

Therefore, before recharging:

1. If recharging with the battery installed

on the vehicle, be sure to disconnect
the ground cable.

2. Be sure the power switch on the re-

charger is off when connecting the
charger cables to the battery and when
disconnecting them.

CAUTION

Always charge the battery in an un-
confined area. Do not charge the
battery in a garage or closed room
where there is not sufficient ventila-
tion.

Only do a slow charge (5 A or
less). Charging at a quicker rate is
dangerous. The battery may ex-
plode, causing personal injuries.

NOTICE

Never recharge the battery while the
engine is running. Also, be sure all
accessories are turned off.
