the battery. In order for your battery to perform satisfactorily, keep t\
he following in mind:
l Check the fluid level in each cell in the battery every 24 months or eve\
ry 15,000* miles (24,000 km),
whichever is sooner. The fluid should be at the level shown in the illus\
tration above (A**).
Use a screwdriver to open the caps and a flashlight to inspect the level\
.
l If necessary, add distilled water. The level should never be above the indicator (A).
l The fluid level should be checked if the battery has been recharged.
l After inspection, be sure the cap over each battery cell is securely in \
place.

ened.
l Never disconnect the battery when the engine is running, for example whe\
n changing the battery.
