WARNING
Battery acid (electrolyte) is extremely
harmful. Always wear safety goggles
and rubber gloves when performing
battery maintenance. Severe injury
will result if acid contacts eyes or skin.
Do not smoke, allow open flames or
sparks, or wear jewelry when
performing battery maintenance.
Batteries may explode, causing injury
or death to personnel.
Remove all jewelry such as rings, dog
tags, bracelets, etc. If jewelry or
disconnected battery ground cable
contacts battery post, a direct short can
result, causing damage to equipment or
severe injury to personnel.
a. Check specific gravity of each cell before
adding distilled water. Using optical
battery tester, which requires no temper-

of electrolyte in each cell (TM 9-6140-200-14).
