A
CAUTION:
Using
a
match near
a
battery can cause battery
gas to explode. People have been hurt doing this,
and
some
have been blinded. Use
a
flashlight
if
you need more light.
Be sure the battery has enough water. You don’t
need to add water to the Delco Freedom@ battery
installed in every new
GM
vehicle. But if
a
battery has filler caps, be sure the right amount
of fluid is there. If it is low, add water to take care
of that
first.
If
you don’t, explosive gas could be
present.
Battery fluid contains acid that can burn you.
Don’t get it on you.
If
you accidentally get
it
in
your eyes
or
on your skin, flush the place with
water and get medical help immediately.

Check that the jumper cables don’t have loose
or
missing insulation.
If
they
do,
you
could get a
shock.
The vehicles could
also
be
damaged.
Before you
connect
the cables, here are
some
things
you
should
know.
Positive
(+)
will
go
to positive
(+)
and
negative
(0)
will
go
to negative
(-)
or
a
metal
engine
part.
Don’t
connect positive
(+)
to negative
(-)
or
you’ll get a
short
that would damage the battery
and
maybe other
parts,
too.
