Internal: Drink large quantities of water or milk. Follow with milk of magnesia, beaten egg, or vegetable oil. Call physician immediately. Eyes: Flush with water for 15 minutes and get prompt medical attention. Batteries produce explosive gases. Keep sparks, flame, cigarettes, etc. away. Ventilate when charging or using in an enclosed space. Always shield eyes when working near batteries. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Your vehicle may have either a sealed battery, which requires little maintenance, or a conventional battery. A sealed battery can be identified by its flat covers on the top of the battery. A conventional battery has six filler caps on the top of the battery. Always keep battery terminals and connections free of corrosion. If cleaning is necessary, remove the corrosion with a stiff wire brush. Wash with a solution of one tablespoon baking soda and one cup water. Rinse well with tap water and dry off with clean shop towels. Coat the terminals with dielectric grease or petroleum jelly. Be careful not to allow cleaning solution or tap water into the battery. Battery Fluid (Conventional Battery) A poorly maintained battery will deteriorate rapidly. Check the battery fluid level often. Maintain the fluid level between the upper and lower level marks. Add only distilled water. Tap water contains minerals that are harmful to a battery. Lower Mark Upper Mark 82

MAINTENANCE
Battery
Battery electrolyte is poisonous. It contains sulfuric acid. Serious burns can result from contact with
skin, eyes or clothing.
Antidote:
External
: Flush with water.
Internal
: Drink large quantities of water or milk. Follow with milk of magnesia, beaten egg, or vegetable
oil. Call physician immediately.
Eyes
: Flush with water for 15 minutes and get prompt medical attention.
Batteries produce explosive gases. Keep sparks, flame, cigarettes, etc. away. Ventilate when charging
or using in an enclosed space. Always shield eyes when working near batteries. KEEP OUT OF
REACH OF CHILDREN.
Your vehicle may have either a sealed battery, which requires little maintenance, or a con-
ventional battery. A sealed battery can be identified by its flat covers on the top of the bat-
tery. A conventional battery has six filler caps on the top of the battery.
Always keep battery terminals and connections free of corrosion. If cleaning is necessary,
remove the corrosion with a stiff wire brush. Wash with a solution of one tablespoon baking
soda and one cup water. Rinse well with tap water and dry off with clean shop towels. Coat
the terminals with dielectric grease or petroleum jelly. Be careful not to allow cleaning solu-
tion or tap water into the battery.
Battery Fluid (Conventional Battery)
A poorly maintained battery will deteriorate rapidly. Check
the battery fluid level often. Maintain the fluid level between
the upper and lower level marks.
Add only distilled water. Tap water contains minerals that are
harmful to a battery.
