WARNING
• The battery has acid that can burn you. And its gas can explode.
1
You can get serious injuries if you are not careful. Keep naked
flames, sparks and smoking items away from the battery.
2
• Loosely connected batter terminals can set up sparks. These
sparks can cause a fire with flammable gas. Therefore, tightly
3
connect the terminals.
• At night, if you need to check the engine room, do not use a
4
lighter, but only use a battery-powered flashlight.
5 • Because the battery electrolyte is very strong acid, avoid any
direct contact of the battery electrolyte on your skin or
vehicle's body. If the acid contacts your skin, thoroughly wash
6
your skin with fresh water and see your doctor. Do the same
on your vehicle.
7
• Wear eye protection when working with a battery. If working
8
in a closed area, keep good ventilation.

CAUTION
• If you disconnect the battery terminal when the engine is
running, electrical systems could be damaged.
• To remove the battery cable, disconnect the negative cable
first.And be careful on the battery terminal polarity when you
connect the cables. The negative and the positive should not
be confused.
• The polarity of the battery, i.e. the connections for positive
and negative cables, must not be interchanged. Never short-
circuit the battery.
• When the ambient temperature is too low, the battery capac-
ity will drop and can be frozen.
• Keep the battery electrolyte at its specified level. If the elec-
trolyte level is higher than the MAX level, it can overflow during
battery charging and if the electrolyte is overcharged, the bat-
tery can explode.
• Only use a battery with the approved voltage and capacity.
Otherwise, an incompatible battery can catch fire.
