1. CHECK BATTERY ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
Check the electrolyte quantity of each cell.
Maintenance--Free Battery:
If under the lower level, replace the battery (or add distilled wa-
ter if po ssible). Check t he charging syste m.
Except maintenance-- Free Battery:
If under the lower level, add distilled water.
2. Except Maintenance--Free Battery:
CHECK BATTERY SPECIFIC GRAVITY
Check the specific gravity of each cell.
Standard specific gravity: 1.25 -- 1.29 at 20˚C(68˚F)
If the specific gravity is less than specification, charge the bat-
tery.
3. Maintenance--Free Battery:
CHECK BATTERY VOLTAGE
(a) After having driven the vehicle and in the case that 20
minutes have not passed a fter having stopped the en-
gine, turn the ignition switch ON and turn on the electrical
system (headlight, blower motor, rear defogger etc.) for
60 seconds to remove the surface charge.
(b) Turn the ignition switch OFF an d turn off the electrical sys-
tems.
(c) Measure the battery voltage between the negative (--)
and positive (+) terminals of the battery.
Standard voltage: 12.5 -- 12.9 V at 20˚C(68˚F)
If the voltage is less than specification, charge the battery.
HINT:
Check the indicator as shown in the illustration.
4. CHECK BATTERY TERMINALS, FUSIBLE LINK AND
FUSES
(a) Check that the battery terminals are not loose or cor-
roded.
If the terminals are corroded, clean the terminals.
(b) Check the fusible link and fuses for continuity.
