Check the condition of your car's bat-
tery monthly. You should check the
colour of the test indicator window,
and for corrosion on the terminals.
The battery gives off
explosive hydrogen gas
during normal operation. A
spark or open flame can
cause the battery to explode
with enough force to kill or
seriously hurt you.
Keep all sparks, open flames,
and smoking materials away
from the battery.
Wear protective clothing and
a face shield, or have a skilled
technician do the battery
maintenance.

The battery contains sulfuric
acid (electrolyte) which is
highly corrosive and

Getting electrolyte in your

cause serious burns. Wear
protective clothing and eye
protection when working on
or near the battery.
Swallowing electrolyte can
cause fatal poisoning if
immediate action is not
taken.
