Checking the Battery Electrolyte
Level (Serviceable Batteries Only)
WARNING
Exposure Hazard
Batteries contain sulfuric acid.
Never allow battery fluid to come in
contact with clothing, skin or eyes.
Severe burns could result. Always wear
safety goggles and protective clothing
when servicing the battery. If battery
fluid contacts the eyes and/or skin,
immediately flush the affected area with
a large amount of clean water and
obtain prompt medical treatment.
NOTICE
Never turn off the battery switch (if
equipped) or short the battery cables
during operation. Damage to the electric
system will result.
NOTICE
Never operate with insufficient battery
electrolyte. Operating with insufficient
electrolyte will destroy the battery.
Battery fluid tends to evaporate in high
temperatures, especially in summer.
In such conditions, inspect the battery
earlier than specified.
1. Turn off the battery switch (if equipped)
or disconnect the negative (-) battery
cable.
2. Do not operate with insufficient battery
electrolyte, as the battery will be
destroyed.
3. Remove the plugs and check the
electrolyte level in all cells.
NOTICE
Never attempt to remove the covers or
fill a maintenance-free battery.
4. If the level is lower than the minimum fill
(Figure 12, (1))
, fill with distilled
(Figure 12, (2))
(available in the
