B: INSPECTION
1. BATTERY
1) External parts
Check for the existence of dirt or cracks on the battery
case, top cover, vent plugs, and terminal posts. If
necessary, clean with water and wipe with a dry cloth.
Apply a thin coat of grease on the terminal posts to prevent
corrosion.
2) Electrolyte level
Check the electrolyte level in each cell. If the level is below
MIN LEVEL, bring the level to MAX LEVEL by pouring dis-
tilled water into the battery cell. Do not fill beyond MAX
LEVEL.
WARNING:
Electrolyte has toxicity; be careful handling the
fluid.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Especially
at contact with eyes, blush with water for 15 minutes
and get prompt medical attention.
Batteries produce explosive gasses. Keep sparks,
flame, cigarettes away.
Ventilate when charging or using in enclosed space.
For safety, in case an explosion does occur, wear
eye protection or shield your eyes when working near
any battery. Never lean over a battery.
Do not let battery fluid contact eyes, skin, fabrics, or
paint-work because battery fluid is corrosive acid.
To lessen the risk of sparks, remove rings, metal
watch-bands, and other metal jewelry. Never allow
metal tools to contact the positive battery terminal and
anything connected to it while you are at the same time
in contact with any other metallic portion of the vehicle
because a short circuit will be caused.
