Battery Care (Energizer)
Check fluid level monthly utiliz-
ing the level indicator cap marked
"Delco Eye". If the transparent eye
within the cap glows, fluid level is
low.
Add only colorless, odorless
drinking water or distilled water to
bring level to split ring in filler
opening.
Battery - Gas Warning - Since
normal battery or Energizer chem-
ical action generates hydrogen gas
which is explosive when mixed with
air, never expose the battery to an
open flame or electric spark. Also,
avoid getting battery fluid, which is
a sulfuric acid solution, on skin, or
clothing or other fabric, or on
painted surfaces. Eye protection
should be worn while working on
the battery for any reason. For
maximum wattage requirements,
specify a Delco Energizer at re-
placement time.
