2. Add distilled water to the specified level if
the electrolyte level is low.
3. Set the charging rate to 1.9 ampere and
charge the battery slowly until the explo-
sive gases are discharged vigorously
from the battery cells.
To connect the battery terminals:
1. Make sure that the connections are cor-
rect when you install the battery in the
watercraft.
