Removal & Installation: Battery: Notes

WARNING: When handling a battery, the following safety precautions should be observed: Hydrogen gas is produced by the battery. A flame or spark near the battery may cause the gas to ignite. Battery fluid is highly acidic. Avoid spilling on clothing or other fabric. Any spilled electrolyte should be flushed with large quantities of water and cleaned immediately.

NOTE: The ignition switch must be off when connecting or disconnecting battery cables or chargers. Failure to do so may overstress or damage the ECM or other electronic components.
