Vehicle Damage Warnings

CAUTION:
- If REPLACE BATTERY is the result of the test, this may mean a poor connection between the vehicle's cables and battery exists. After disconnecting the vehicle's battery cables from the battery, retest the battery using the OUT-OF-VEHICLE test before replacing.
- Always disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable before charging a battery. Do not exceed 16 volts while charging a battery. Damage to the vehicle electrical system components may result.
- Battery electrolyte will bubble inside the battery case during normal battery charging. Electrolyte boiling or being discharged from the battery vents indicates a battery overcharging condition. Immediately reduce the charging rate or turn OFF the charger to evaluate the battery condition. Damage to the battery may result from overcharging.
- The battery should not be hot to touch. If the battery feels hot to touch, turn OFF the charger and let the battery cool before continuing the charging operation. Damage to the battery may result.
- Do not open any doors, or turn on any electrical accessories with the lowest milliampere scale selected, or the multi-meter may be damaged.
