NOTElLoosen the nut (B), and then disconnect the
battery cable from the positive (+) terminal.WARNINGl Keep sparks, cigarettes, and flames away
from the battery because the battery could explode.WARNINGl The battery electrolyte is extremely caus-
tic. Do not allow it to come in contact with
your eyes, skin, clothing, or the painted surfaces of the vehicle. Spilt electrolyte
should be flushed immediately with ample amounts of water.
Irritation to eyes or skin from contact
with electrolyte requires immediate medi-
cal attention.

tion switch or the operation mode is in the“ON” position; doing so could damage the
vehicle’s electrical components.
l Never short-circuit the battery. This could
cause it to overheat and be damaged.
l If the battery is to be quick-charged, first
disconnect the battery cables.
l In order to prevent a short circuit, be sure to
disconnect the negative (-) terminal first.
l Always wear protective eye goggles when
working near the battery.CAUTIONl Do not bring the nearby parts, the plastic
parts and so on into contact with sulphuric acid (battery electrolyte) which may crack,
stain or discolour them.
