to contact your eyes, skin, or clothing. Do not lean
over a battery when attaching clamps. If acid
splashes in eyes or on skin, flush the area imme-
diately with large amounts of water.

Battery gas is flammable and explosive. Keep

flame or sparks away from the battery. Do not use
a booster battery or any other booster source with
an output greater than 12 Volts. Do not allow cable

contain lead and lead compounds. Wash hands
after handling.

battery case. Cable clamps should be tight on the
terminal posts and free of corrosion.

If a “fast charger” is used while the battery is in
