securely to the hull with a battery band or the like to prevent it
from falling down during boating.

In the case of multiple engine installation, be sure to use a bat-
tery for an engine respectively.
NOTE:
When extending the battery cable, use a cable of diameter
larger than equivalence of AV30 (AWG2).

Suzuki recommends that the customer, dealer, or boat builder
should install the terminal cap on the positive battery terminal to
prevent an accidental short circuit of battery terminals.
If a terminal cap is required, contact your authorized Suzuki
Marine Dealer.
Failure to take proper precautions when handling the
battery may cause severe injury.
Be sure to take the following precautions when han-
dling the battery:

sparks as batteries generate gas which is flammable
and explosive.
• Do not place the battery near the fuel tank.
• Battery acid is poisonous and corrosive. Avoid con-
tact with eyes, skin, clothing and painted surfaces.
If you come in contact with battery acid, flush imme-
diately with large amounts of water and seek
immediate medical attention.
• Batteries should always be kept out of reach of chil-
dren.
• When checking or servicing battery, disconnect the
negative (black) cable. Be careful not to cause a
short circuit by allowing metal objects to contact the
battery posts and motor at the same time.
