 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.
