Battery Safety Warning

General Precautions:
Before working with batteries make sure you are aware of all the safety precautions.Make sure the engine, lights and any accessories are turned off before removing old battery.

Check if vehicle has a computerised electrical system. Vehicles with on board computer systems require an alternative power source to maintain electronic memory when battery is disconnected.

 Keep open flames and sparks away from the battery.
 Keep vent caps in place.
 Charge in well ventilated area.
 Make sure cables are away from fan blades andother       movingvehicle parts.
 

Manufacturers Instruction
Always follow any instructions supplied with the battery or printed on the battery.

Battery Fluid can cause burns
Use extreme care when handling Battery Fluid. If electrolyte is spilled or splashed onto clothing or the body, wash with water and neutralize with a solution of baking soda and water. Electrolyte splashed into eyes is extremely dangerous. If this occurs, gently open eyes and wash with cool clean water for 5 minutes. Call a doctor.

Always shield eyes when working near batteries:
When charging batteries, work in a well ventilated area - never in a closed room. Always turn the battery charger or ignition off before disconnecting a battery.

If electrolyte is swallowed:
Drink large quantities of water or milk and follow with milk or magnesia, beaten eggs or vegetable oil. Call a doctor immediately.

Exploding Battery:
Batteries generate explosive gasses during vehicle operation and when being charged. Flames, sparks, burning cigarettes or other ignition sources must be kept away at all times.

Vehicles fitted with an Air Bag:

Removal or replacement of battery terminals will not unintentionally trigger an air bag system. However removal of battery terminals with the ignition remaining "on" can cause damage to electronic components, including the SRS - always check to ensure that the ignition is "off" before removing either of the battery terminals.

Before carrying out any work on the electrical system beyond the battery, the air bag system must be electrically disabled. Never indiscriminately probe the electrical wiring/connectors in the vicinity of the steering column. The wiring and harness connectors of most air bag systems are bright yellow; do not interfere with any harness of this colour. As an added safety measure it is recommended that no person should remain seated behind the steering wheel while any electrical service work is carried out on the vehicle.

Battery Installation

 Cable and starter motor connections shouldbe checked
 and  tightened if necessary.
 
 If terminal clamps or cables are badly corroded, they should
 be  replaced.
 
 Check clearances over the battery to avoid shorts when the
 bonnet  is closed.
 
 Place and tighten hold downs securely so that the battery
 cannot move in the tray.
 
 Replace cables ensuring that the ground terminal is connected
 last. Tighten connections. Do not over tighten.
 
 Never hammer cable connections onto battery posts, as this
 can damage the battery posts and cover.
