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.
5.
Check that the jumper cables don’t have loose or
missing
insulation.
If
they do, you could get a shock.
The
vehicles could be damaged, too.
A
CAUTION:
-
Fans or other moving engine
parts
can injure you
badly. Keep your hands away from moving parts
once the engine is running.
