You don’t need
to add water to the Delco Freedom@ battery installed
in every new
GM vehicle. But if a battery has filler caps, be sure the
right amount of fluid is there.

that first. If you don’t, explosive gas could be present.

it on you. If
you accidentally get it in your eyes or on your skin, flush the place
I with water and get medical help immediately.
