Cleaning of battery
If the external part of the battery is fouled, clean with tepid water. Apply a thin coat
of vaseline or grease onto the battery terminals to prevent corrosion.
WARNING
When reconnecting the cable to the battery be careful to ensure the clamps are
fully seated, then tighten the retaining bolts so that clamps will not vibrate loose.
Be sure to attach the red cable to the positive (+) battery terminal and the black
cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.
NOTE
Be sure to keep in mind that the positive terminal (+) is first when connecting and
the negative terminal (-) is first when dis-connecting.
CAUTION
Batteries contain toxic material. Used batteries can be hazardous to health and
environment. Do not dispose off battery with household waste. Use locally authorized
automotive waste disposal facilities only.
