An electric fan can start up
-
even when the engine is not
running and can injure you. Keep
hands, clothing and tools away
from any underhood electric fan.
Find the positive
(+)
and negative
(-)
terminals on each battery.
Using a match near
a
battery
can cause battery gas to
explode. People
have
been
hurt
doing this, and some have been
blinded. Use a flashlight if
you
need more light.
Be sure the battery has enough
water. You don't need to add
water to the Delco Freedom*
battery installed
in
every new
GM
vehicle. But if a battery has filler
caps, be sure the right amount of
fluid is there. If it is low, add
water
to
take care of that first. If
you don't, explosive gas could be
present.
Battery fluid contains acid that can
burn you. Don't get it on you. If
you accidentally get it in your eyes
or on your skin, flush the place
with water and get medical help
immediately.
