Information - For batteries
marked with UPPER and
LOWER
OHI078084LOHI078084L
If your vehicle is equipped with a battery
marked with LOWER (MIN) and UPPER
(MAX) on the side, you should check the
electrolyte level.
The electrolyte level should be between
LOWER (MIN) and UPPER (MAX).
When the electrolyte level is low, add
distilled (or de-mineralized) water. (Never
add sulphuric acid or other electrolyte).
Be careful not to spill distilled (or
demineralized) water over the battery
surface or other adjacent components.
Also, do not overfill the battery cells.
If not, it may corrode the battery or other
components. Finally, securely close the
cell cap. However, we recommend you to
contact an authorised Retailer of Genesis
Branded Products for better battery
service.
