the solution, it would freeze almost as quickly as outside of the
battery.
Distilled water will be required more frequently in summer than
in winter.
It
is a good plan to add water at least once a week in
summer and every two weeks
in winter. When long daylight
runs are made, water must be
added still more frequently.
Keep all battery terminals
clean and tight.
A discharged battery will
freeze at a little below the
freezing point of water (32
degrees F .) . A fully charged
battery will not freeze, even at
temperatures as low as 30° be-
low zero; therefore, keep the
battery fully charged. Your
Chevrolet Dealer will gladly
check the condition of the
battery for you on a no-charge
basis. Register your battery
with him.
