C Battery Charging
To avoid personal injury or death:
A When the battery is being activated, hydrogen
and oxygen gases in the battery are extremely
explosive. Keep open sparks and flames away
from the battery at all times, especially when
charging the battery.
A When charging the battery, ensure the vent
caps are securely in place. (if equipped)
A When disconnecting the cable from the battery,
start with the negative terminal first.
When connecting the cable to the battery, start
with the positive terminal first.
A Never check battery charge by placing a metal
object across the posts.
Use a voltmeter or hydrometer.
When attaching the new battery, its positve terminal faces
to the rearward of the machine.

1. To slow charge the battery, connect the battery
positive terminal to the charger positive terminal and
the negative to the negative, then recharge in the
standard fashion.

2. A boost charge is only for emergencies. It will partially
charge the battery at a high rate and in a short time.
When using a boost-charged battery, it is necessary to
recharge the battery as early as possible.
Failure to do this will shorten the battery's service life.
3. The battery is charged if the indicator display turns
green from black.

remove the battery from machine, adjust the
electrolyte to the proper level and store in a dry place
out of direct sunlight.

Recharge it once every three months in hot seasons
and once every six months in cold seasons.
BChecking Air-Conditioner Condenser
Check air-conditioner condenser to be sure it is clean from
debris.
