TEST INDICATOR WINDOW
Check the battery condition by
looking at the test indicator window
on the battery:
Blue — Good condition
Red — Add distilled water
White — Charging necessary
Check the battery terminals for
corrosion (a white or yellowish
powder). To remove it, cover the
terminals with a solution of baking
soda and water. It will bubble up and
turn brown. When this stops, wash it
off with plain water. Dry off the
battery with a cloth or paper towel.
Coat the terminals with grease to
help prevent future corrosion.
