• Hydrogen gas is generated when charging a battery. Keep the
battery in a well‑ventilated area during charging. Remove the
battery from the boat; this will protect your hull and interior
from damage. Electric sparks, cigarette smoking, and other
sources of fire must be avoided in the charging area to prevent
explosion of the battery.
• The battery fluid (electrolyte) contains sulfuric acid. If
electrolyte is spilled on the skin or clothes, wash with plenty
of water and consult a medical doctor. Always use safety
glasses and rubber gloves when handling the battery.
