3.7.3 If battery is discharged
WARNING
! When checking or handling the battery, stop the engine and
turn the starting switch key to the OFF position.
! The battery generates hydrogen gas, so there is a hazard of
explosion. Do not bring lighted cigarettes near the battery, or
do anything that will cause sparks.
! Battery electrolyte is dilute sulphuric acid, and it will attack
your clothes and skin. If it gets on your clothes or on your
skin, immediately wash it off with a large amount of water. If
it gets in your eyes, wash it out with fresh water and consult
a doctor.
! When handling batteries, always wear protective goggles
and rubber gloves.
! When removing the battery, first disconnect the cable from
the ground (normally the negative (-) terminal). When install-
ing, install the positive (+) terminal first.
If a tool touches the positive terminal and the chassis, there
is danger that it will cause a spark, so be extremely careful.
! If the terminals are loose, there is danger that the defective
contact may generate sparks that will cause an explosion.
! When removing or installing the terminals, check which is
the positive (+) terminal and which is the negative (-) termi-
nal.
