BATTERY INSPECTION
1. Fill:
CAUTION:
• Never remove the sealing sheet (aluminium
seal) from the battery until the battery is filled
with electrolyte.
If battery plates are exposed to air, they will
oxidize. As a result, power will not be gener-
ated as specified.
• Add electrolyte so that its level is correct as
specified.
An incorrect electrolyte level has an adverse
effect on battery performance. The quantity of
electrolyte varies with the type of the electro-
lyte container. Use only the amount of electro-
lyte in the container which comes with the
battery.
• Avoid using any electrolyte other than speci-
fied.
The specific gravity of the MF battery electro-
lyte is 1.320 (20 °C, 68 °F). (the specific gravity
of the general type battery electrolyte is
1.280.) If the electrolyte whose specific grav-
ity is less than 1.320, the sulfuric acid will
decrease and thus low battery performance
will result.
Should any electrolyte, whose specific gravity
is 1.320 or more, be used, the battery plates
will corrode and battery life will shorten.
a. Place the battery on a level surface.
b. Remove the sealing sheet 1.

bag.
d. Detach the strip of caps (used as battery plugs)
