The 12-volt battery contains poisonous and corrosive acidic ele ctrolyte,
while related parts contain lead and lead compounds. Observe th e following
precautions when handling the 12-volt battery:
● When working with the 12-volt battery, always wear safety glass es and
take care not to allow any battery fluids (acid) to come into c ontact with
skin, clothing or the vehicle body.
● Do not lean over the 12-volt battery.
● In the event that battery fluid comes into contact with the skin or eyes,
immediately wash the affected area with water and seek medical attention.
