WARNING

Sulfuric acid in batteries.

Can cause severe injury or death.

Use protective goggles and clothes. Can cause permanent damage to eyes, burn skin, and eat holes in clothing.

Sulfuric acid in batteries can cause severe injury or

death. Sulfuric acid in battery can cause permanent damage to eyes, burn skin, and eat holes in clothing. Always wear splash-proof safety goggles when working around the battery. If battery electrolyte is splashed in the eyes or on skin, immediately flush the affected area for 15 minutes with large quantities of clean water. In the case of eye contact, seek immediate medical aid. Never add acid to a battery once the battery has been placed in service. Doing so may result in hazardous spattering of electrolyte.

Explosion can cause severe injury or death. Battery gases can cause an explosion. Do not smoke or permit flame or spark to occur near a battery at any time, particularly when it is being charged. Avoid contacting terminals with tools, etc. to prevent burns and to prevent sparks that could cause an explosion. Remove wristwatch, rings, and any other jewelry before handling battery. Never connect negative (--) battery cable to positive (+) connection terminal of starter solenoid. Do not test battery condition by shorting terminals together or sparks could ignite battery gases or fuel vapors. Any compartment containing batteries must be well ventilated to prevent accumulation of explosive gases. To avoid sparks, do not disturb battery charger connections while battery is being charged and always turn charger off before disconnecting battery connections. When disconnecting battery, remove negative lead first and reconnect it last.
