Battery
Stop engine when checking battery
electrolyte level. Do not check or
fill battery electrolyte level near
an open flame, sparks, or when
smoking. Battery fumes are flam-
mable and explosive, and if ignited
will result in severe injury or death.
When working on or around the battery:
• Remove jewelry, wristwatches and any other con-
ductive items. The current produced by the battery
could cause severe burns.
• Wear eye protection and gloves and handle the
battery carefully. Contact with battery acid could
cause severe burns or blindness.
Failure to observe these warnings could result in
severe injury or death.
