When the LED "full" illuminates, the battery is completely charged. Disconnect the charger
from the mains. Disconnect the black and red clips from the terminals of the battery.
Inspect the liquid levels in each cell and top up if necessary, using the correct fluid. Any
surplus fluid around the cell tops should be wiped off (this should be done with extreme
care as it may be acidic/corrosive). Replace the caps.
