or rub your eyes. Thoroughly wash
your hands. If you get acid on your
eyes, skin or clothing, immediately
flush with water for at least 15 min-
utes and seek medical attention.
IDo not operate the vehicle if the
battery fluid is low. Low battery fluid
can cause a higher load on the bat-
tery which can generate heat, reduce
battery life, and in some cases lead
to an explosion.
IWhen working on or near a battery,
always wear suitable eye protection
and remove all jewelry.
IBattery posts, terminals and related
accessories contain lead and lead
compounds. Wash hands after han-
dling.
IKeep the battery out of the reach of
children.Check the fluid level in each cell. It should be
between the MAX and MIN lines.
If it is necessary to add fluid, add only distilled
water to bring the level to the indicator in each
filler opening.Do not overfill.
Vehicles operated in high temperatures or under
severe conditions require frequent checks of the
battery fluid level.
1. Remove the cell plugs.
2. Add distilled water up to the MAX level.
3. Tighten cell plugs.
JUMP STARTINGIf jump starting is necessary, see ªJump startingº
in the ª6. In case of emergencyº section. If the
