well-ventilated area and far from open
flames or sparks.
Do not smoke during battery charging.
Keep the hood open while recharging the
battery.
WARNING!
Pay attention during battery recharging
because there can be battery liquid leaka-
ge. The battery liquid is corrosive. If it co-
mes in contact with the skin or eyes rinse
