CAUTION

 Avoiding battery fires or explosions

Observe the following precautions to prevent accidentally igniting the flam-

mable gas that may be emitted from the battery:

 Make sure each jumper cable is connected to the correct terminal and that

it is not unintentionally in contact with any other than the intended terminal.

 Do not allow the + and - clamps of the jumper cables to come into contact

with each other.

 Do not smoke, use matches, cigarette lighters or allow open flame near

the battery.

 Battery precautions

The battery contains poisonous and corrosive acidic electrolyte, while

related parts contain lead and lead compounds. Observe the following pre-

cautions when handling the battery:

 When working with the battery, always wear safety glasses and take care

not to allow any battery fluids (acid) to come into contact with skin, clothing

or the vehicle body.

 Do not lean over the battery.

 In the event that battery fluid comes into contact with the skin or eyes,

immediately wash the affected area with water and seek medical attention.

Place a wet sponge or cloth over the affected area until medical attention

can be received.

 Always wash your hands after handling the battery support, terminals, and

other battery-related parts.

 Do not allow children near the battery.

 To prevent damage to the vehicle

Do not pull- or push-start the vehicle as the three-way catalytic converter

may overheat and become a fire hazard.
