1998 HONDA CR-V fluid

Battery
Test
@M. Battery fluid (eleqtrolyte) contains sulturic acid. lt may couse sevore burns if it gets on your skin or in your eyes. Wearprotective clothing and a fac6 shield.- lf elestrolyte gets on your skin o. clothos, rinse it otf with wator imm€diately.- lf €leqtrolyte gets in your eyes. tlush it out by splashing water in your syes for at least 15 minutes; call a physicianimmediately.
. A battery gives off hydrogon gas. lf ignited, the hydrogen will €xplode and could crack the battery case and splatt€racid on you. Kgop sparks. flamss, and cigarettes away from the batt€ry,. Overcharging will raise the tomperatute of the electrolyte. This may torcs electrolyto to spray out of the battEry vents,Follow the charger manutacturer's instructions, and charge the battery at a proper ral€,
Use either a JCI or Bear ARBST tester, and follow the manufacturer's procedures. lf you don't have one of tnese comput-erized testers, follow this conventional test procedure:
To get accurate results, the temperature ofthe electrolyte must be between 70.F (21.c) and loo"F (38"c).
23-50
lf the case is cracked or the terminals are roose.
replace the batterv.
Check Indicator EYE Color
lf the indicator shows low electrolyte, add distilled
water if possible.
EYE Indicates OK
Test Load Capacity (#1)
. Apply 300 amp load for 15 seconds to remove surfacecharge.. Allow 15 seconds recovery period.. Apply test load (see Test Load Chart).. Record voltage at the end of 15 seconos.
Voltage stays above 9.6
volts; battery is OK.
