Internal: Drink large quantities of water or
milk. Follow with milk of magnesia, beaten
egg, or vegetable oil. Call a physician im-

Batteries produce explosive gases. Keep
sparks, flames, cigarettes, etc., well away.
If using or charging the battery in an en-
closed space, make sure that it is well
ventilated. Always shield your eyes when
working near batteries.
Keep out of the reach of children.
To remove the battery:
(1) Disconnect the negative (–) battery lead.
(2) Disconnect the positive (+) battery lead.
(3) Unhook the battery bands, and then re-move the battery from the watercraft.
Checking the battery
Make sure that the battery case is not dam-
aged.
Make sure that the battery terminals are
not corroded or damaged.
Checking the battery voltage and charging
the battery
It is recommended to have a Yamaha dealer
check the battery voltage and charge the bat-
tery. Have a Yamaha dealer charge the bat- tery as soon as possible if it seems to have
discharged. Keep in mind that the battery
tends to discharge more quickly if the vehicle
is equipped with optional electrical accesso-
ries.
NOTICE: To charge a VRLA (Valve
Regulated Lead Acid) battery, a special
(constant-voltage) battery charger is re-
quired. Using a conventional battery char-
ger will damage the battery.

Checking the battery bands
Make sure that the battery bands are not
damaged.
To store the battery:
(1) Clean the battery case using fresh water.
(2) If the battery terminals are dirty or cor- roded, clean them using a wire brush.
(3) Apply water-resistant grease to the bat- tery terminals.
