CAUTION: Should any electrolyte spillage oc-
cur, immediately wash off with a solution of
baking soda and water to prevent damage to
vehicle components.
Cleaning
Clean the battery, battery casing, cables and bat-
tery posts using a solution of baking soda and wa-
ter.
Remove corrosion from battery cable terminals
and battery posts using a firm wire brush. Bat-
tery top should be cleaned by soft brush and any
grease-cutting soap or baking soda solution.
Inspection
Visually inspect battery casing for cracks, leaks or
other possible damage. Discoloration, warping or
raised top, indicates that battery has overheated
or been overcharged. If casting is damaged, re-
place battery and thoroughly clean battery tray and
close area with water and baking soda.
WARNING
Should the battery casing be damaged, wear
a suitable pair of rubber gloves when remov-
ing the battery by hand.
Inspect battery posts for security of mounting.
Battery Charge Testing
Voltmeter Test
NOTE: To determine the battery state of charge,
these sealed batteries have to be tested with a
voltmeter. They also need to be tested when their
voltage is stabilized. Disconnect battery to have
open connectors and wait 1-2 hours prior to read-
ing the voltage. The same condition is required
after a battery has been charged.
Batteries with a voltage above 12.8 V do not need
to be charged.
Batterieswithavoltageof12.8Vandbelowneed
to be charged. Refer to BATTERY CHARGING be-
low.
Battery Storage
CAUTION: A discharged battery will freeze and
it may damage its casing. A damaged casing
will allow electrolyte spillage that may damage
surrounding parts.
Disconnect and remove battery from the vehicle.
The battery must always be stored in fully charged
condition.
Clean battery terminals and cable connections us-
ing a wire brush. Apply a light coat of silicone di-
electric grease (P/N 293 550 004) or petroleum jel-
ly on terminals.
Clean battery casing using a solution of baking so-
da and water. Rinse battery with clear water and
dry well using a clean cloth.
Charge the battery every month if stored at tem-
perature below 15°C(60°F).
Charge the battery every two week if stored at
temperature above 15°C(60°F).
Activation of New Battery
Refer to the instructions provided with the battery.
