WARNING
Working on the batteries or the electrical system in your vehicle
can cause serious acid burns, fires, or electrical shock.
Always keep children away from battery acid and vehicle
batteries in general.
Sulfuric battery acid is very corrosive and can cause blindness
and damage to unprotected skin. Never let battery acid or lead
particles contact your eyes, skin, and clothing.
Never lean over a vehicle battery. Always wear protective
gloves and eye protection. To reduce your risk of injury, never
tilt the batteries; acid could spill out through the vents and burn
you.
A highly explosive mixture of gases is given off when the
battery is being charged.
Always avoid fires, sparks, open flame, and smoking. Never
create sparks or electrostatic charges when handling cables
and electrical equipment. Never short-circuit the battery
terminals. High-energy sparks can cause serious personal
injury.
