After touching a battery or bat-
tery cap, do not touch or rub your
eyes. Thoroughly wash your
hands. If the acid contacts your
eyes, skin or clothing, immedi-
ately flush with water for at least
15 minutes and seek medical
attention.
. Do not operate the vehicle if the
fluid in the battery is low. Low
battery fluid can cause a higher
load on the battery which can
generate heat, reduce battery life,
and in some cases lead to an
explosion.
. When working on or near a bat-
tery, always wear suitable eye
protection and remove all jew-
elry.
. Battery posts, terminals and re-
lated accessories contain lead
and lead compounds. Wash
hands after handling.
. Keep the battery out of the reach
of children.
