CHECKING BY FLUID LEVEL LINES
The
fluid (electrolyte) level must be be-
tween the upper and lower lines.
When checking
the
fluid level, look at all
six
cells, not
just
one
or
two.
If
the level is
lower
than
the
lower
line,
add distilled water. (See "ADDING
DISTILLED WATER".)

("-"
mark) first
and
rein-
stall

short
cir-
cuit
with tools.
