A
CAUTION:
Using a match near a battery can cause battery
gas to explode. People have been hurt doing
this,
and some have been blinded. Use a
flashlight if you need more
light.
Be sure the battery has enough water. You don’t
need to add water to the Delco Freedom@
battery installed
in
every new
GM
vehicle. But if
a battery has filler caps, be sure the right
amount of fluid
is
there. If
it
is low, add water to
take care of that first. If you don’t, explosive gas
could be present.
Battery fluid contains acid that can burn you.
Don’t get
it
on you.
If
you accidentally get
it
in
your eyes or
on
your
skin,
flush the place with
water and get medical help immedia
