Battery Charging (Sealed Battery)
On a sealed battery, the sealing strip cannot be removed. Use a voltmeter or multimeter to
measure DC voltage. A fully charged battery will register 12.8 V or higher. If the voltage is
less than 12.8 volts, recharge the battery.
WARNING! An overheated battery could explode, causing severe injury or death. Always watch
charging times carefully. Stop charging if the battery becomes very warm to the touch. Allow it to cool
before resuming charging.
The battery may be recharged without removing it from the vehicle. Attach cables in the fol-
lowing order:
1. Attach the positive (+) cable clamp to the positive battery terminal.
2. Attach the negative (-) cable clamp to the negative (-) battery terminal.
