CHECKING AND CHARGING THE BATTERY

WARNING

Batteries generate explosive hydrogen gas

and contain electrolyte which is made of

poisonous and highly caustic sulfuric acid.

Therefore, always follow these preventive

measures:

• Wear protective eye gear when handling

or working near batteries.

• Charge batteries in a well-ventilated area.

• Keep batteries away from fire, sparks or

open flames (e.g., welding equipment,

lighted cigarettes).

• DO NOT SMOKE when charging or han-

dling batteries.

• KEEP BATTERIES AND ELECTROLYTE

OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

• Avoid bodily contact with electrolyte as it

can cause severe burns or permanent eye

injury.

FIRST AID IN CASE OF BODILY CONTACT:

EXTERNAL

• Skin — Wash with water.

• Eyes — Flush with water for 15 minutes

and get immediate medical attention.

INTERNAL

• Drink large quantities of water or milk fol-

lowed with milk of magnesia, beaten egg

or vegetable oil. Get immediate medical

attention.

CAUTION:

• This is a sealed battery. Never remove the

sealing caps because the balance

between cells will not be maintained and

battery performance will deteriorate.

• Charging time, charging amperage and

charging voltage for an MF battery are dif-

ferent from those of conventional batter-

ies. The MF battery should be charged as

explained in the charging method illustra-

tions. If the battery is overcharged, the

electrolyte level will drop considerably.

Therefore, take special care when charg-

ing the battery.
