can cause blindness and burns.
Keep flames away:
Before working o n or near your
vehicles battery, extinguish all ci-
garettes, matches, and lighters.
Also, keep the battery away from
flammable items and electrical
sparks. Since batteries emit highly
flammable, explosive hydrogen gas,
any flames or sparks in the vicinity
could cause an explosion.
When working near your vehicles
battery, take care that metal tools do
not short-circuit the batterys (+) and
() terminals or connect the bat-
terys (+) terminal to the vehicles
body. A short circuit could create
electrical sparks and lead to an
explosion.
To prev ent electrical sparks, all
rings, wristwatches, and other metal
accessories must be taken off be-
fore work is carried out on or near
the battery.
Prevent explosions:
While being charged, batteries emit
highly flammable, explosive hydro-
gen gas. To prevent an explosion,
charge your vehicles battery in a
well ventilated area and keep flames
away.
