NOTE:
If air bubbles do not rise from any one of the filler ports, tap the
bottom of the electrolyte container two or three times.
Never remove the electrolyte container from the battery while
there is still electrolyte in the container.
• After the electrolyte container is completely empty, remove it
from the battery and wait about 20 minutes.
• Insert the caps 2 firmly into the filler holes, so that the top of
the caps do not protrude above the upper surface of the top
cover of the battery.
* Never use anything except the specified battery.
* Once install the caps to the battery; do not remove
the caps.
* Do not tap the caps with a hammer when installing
them.
Measure the battery voltage using multi circuit tester. The tester
should indicate more than 12.5 – 12.6 V (DC) as shown in the
Fig. If the battery voltage is lower than the specification, charge
the battery with a battery charger. (Refer to the recharging oper-
ation)
Do not remove the caps on the battery top while
charging.
NOTE:
Initial charging for a new battery is recommended if two years
have elapsed since the date of manufacture.
