(2) Cautions when handling batteries

1. Wipe the battery terminals thoroughly and
carefully with a soft brush and baking soda
to remove corrosion around them. Then,
wipe them again with hot water-soaked rag
and apply vaseline or grease to them.
2. Never have the batteries exposed to open
flames or electric sparks.
3. If electrolyte(sulfuric acid) contacts your
skin, eyes, clothing or vehicle body, imme-
diately flush with water.
4. To avoid short circuits, remove all jewelry
and watches and do not permit any metal
tools to make contact between the positive
battery terminal and other metal on the
vehicle.
5. When installing the battery, do not incline
it above 45.
Caution
Be sure to remove battery cable from terminal at
the time of arc welding, or all control units(ABS,
autogreaser, chimebell, speed limiter)may be bro-
ken.

(3) How to use battery jumper cables

Ensure that the jumper cable to be used has
sufficient capacity. Be sure to pair the same
signs, namely (+) cable with (+) terminal and (-
) cable with (-) terminal.
•
When removing the jumper cables, start by
removing the negative(-) cable. When con-
necting them, start by connecting the posi-
tive(+) cable.
•
Never permit the positive(+) cable to con-
tact the negative(-) cable.
