Preparing Battery to Be Tested
Warning: Always wear eye protection, appropriate protective clothing and other
safety equipment when working near lead-acid batteries. Do not touch eyes
while working on or around lead-acid batteries.
1. Be sure area around battery is well ventilated while battery is being tested.
2. Clean battery terminals. Wire brush them if necessary. Be careful to keep
corrosion from coming in contact with eyes.

each cell until battery acid reaches level specified by the manufacturer. This
helps purge excessive gas from cells. Be careful not to overfill.
5. Confirm that all vehicle accessories are turned OFF to ensure you do not cause
any arcing and that the tested battery has a nominal voltage of 12 Volts.
6. If it is necessary to remove battery from vehicle to test, always remove ground
terminal from battery first.
