Vehicle Damage Warnings

CAUTION:
^ Keep the battery and surrounding parts, particularly the top, clean and dry. If electrolyte is evident on the top of the battery, clean it off immediately. Even a weak electrolyte quickly attacks and corrodes the cable connections, battery hold-down clamp and battery ground cable. Use a rag soaked in a weak solution of water and baking soda to counteract the action of spilled electrolyte.
^ To prevent damage to the meter, do not crank the engine or operate accessories that draw more than 10 A.
