Battery Removal and Installation: Notes
WARNING:
Failure to take proper precautions when handling the battery may cause severe personal injury.
- Never expose the battery to an open flame or electric spark. A battery generates highly flammable and explosive hydrogen gas.
- Battery fluid is a corrosive acid. Do not allow it to contact eyes, skin, fabrics, or painted surfaces of the vehicle. If the fluid contacts any of them, immediately and thoroughly flush the affected area with a large quantity of water.
