3.0 Working with Batteries

Lead-acid batteries contain a sulfuric acid electrolyte, which is a highly
corrosive poison and will produce gasses when recharged and explode if
ignited. This will hurt you--BAD!
When working with batteries, you need to have plenty of ventilation, remove
your jewelry, wear protective eyewear (safety glasses) and clothing, and
exercise caution.
Do not allow battery electrolyte to mix with salt water. Even small quantities of
this combination will produce chorine gas that can KILL you!
Whenever possible, please follow the manufacturer's instructions for testing,
jumping, installing, charging and equalizing batteries.

Never disconnect a battery cable from a vehicle with the engine
running because the battery acts like a filter for the electrical
system.
Unfiltered [pulsating DC] electricity can damage expensive
electronic components, e.g., emissions computer, radio, charging
system, etc.
Turn off all electrical switches and components, turn off the
ignition and then disconnect the battery.
For non-sealed batteries, check the electrolyte level. Make sure it
is covering the plates, and it is not frozen before starting to
recharge.
