Clean the battery surface with a clean cloth.
Maintain clean battery terminals. You may use a coating of corrosion protection. Only use the corrosion protection after the battery cable is connected and after the battery cable is clean.
Coat the terminals with corrosion protection. Then, install the post cover.
For conventional batteries and batteries of low maintenance, follow these additional instructions:
Inspect the battery electrolyte level in each battery cell. A maintenance free battery does not require inspection.
Maintain the level of the distilled water to the bottom of the filler openings. If distilled water is not available, use clean drinking water.
A battery should not require more than 30 cc (1 ounce) of water per cell per week. This requirement should exist with the proper charging rate and with a moderate climate.
In extreme temperatures, check the water in the cells weekly. Cell water usage could be higher in extreme temperatures.
Close the battery access cover.
