WARNING
■ Follow These Precautions Carefully
To ensure safe and correct handling of the battery, read the following pre-
cautions carefully before using the battery or inspecting it.
■ Keep flames and sparks away from open battery cells and do
not allow metal tools to contact the positive (+) or negative (-) terminal
of the battery when working near a battery. Do not allow the positive (+)
terminal to contact the vehicle body

produced during normal battery operation, could ignite and cause the bat-
tery to explode. An exploding battery can cause serious burns and injuries.
Keep all flames including cigarettes and sparks away from open battery
cells.
■ Keep all flames and sparks away from open battery cells
because hydrogen gas is produced from open battery cells while
charging the battery or adding battery fluid
Flames and sparks near open battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas,
produced during normal battery operation, could ignite and cause the bat-
tery to explode. An exploding battery can cause serious burns and injuries.
Keep all flames including cigarettes and sparks away from open battery
cells.
■ Do not jump-start a frozen battery or one with a low fluid level
Jump-starting a frozen battery or one with a low fluid level is dangerous. It
may rupture or explode, causing serious injury.
■ Connect the negative cable to a good ground point away from the bat-
tery
Connecting the end of the second jumper cable to the negative (-) terminal
of the discharged battery is dangerous.
A spark could cause the gas around the battery to explode and injure some-
one.
■ Route the jumper cables away from parts that will be moving
Connecting a jumper cable near or to moving parts (cooling fans, belts) is
dangerous. The cable could get caught when the engine starts and cause
serious injury.
