Battery Preparation
6.Ensure the area around the battery is well ventilated. Gas can be blown away using a piece of cardboard, or other nonme- tallic material, as a fan.
7.If it is necessary to remove the battery from the vehicle before charging, always remove the grounded terminal from the battery first. Switch off all vehicle accessories to avoid sparks from occurring.
Note: A marine battery installed in a boat must be removed and charged on shore.
