o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the
affected areas with water for at least 15
minutes and then seek medical assis-
tance.
o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse out
your eyes with water and get medical
assistance as soon as possible. While
you are being driven to get medical
assistance, continue to rinse your eyes
by using a sponge or soft cloth satu-
rated with water.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large
quantity of water or milk followed by milk
of magnesia, eat a raw egg or drink
vegetable oil. Get medical assistance
as soon as possible.
While batteries are being charged (either
by a battery charger or by the vehicle's
generator), they produce explosive gases.
Always observe these warnings to prevent
injuries from occurring:
o Charge batteries only in a well venti-
lated area.
o Do not permit flames, sparks or smok-
ing in the area.
o Keep children away from the area.

G210B04A-AATChecking the BatteryKeep the battery clean. Any evidence of
corrosion around the battery posts or ter-
minals should be removed using a solu-
tion of household baking soda and warm
water. After the battery terminals are dry,
cover them with a light coating of grease.
WARNING:Always read the following in-
structions carefully when han-
dling a battery.
Keep lighted cigarettes and all
other flames or sparks away
from the battery.
Hydrogen, which is a highly
combustible gas, is always
present in battery cells and
may explode if ignited.
Keep batteries out of the reach
of children because batteries
contain highly corrosive SUL-
FURIC ACID. Do not allow bat-
tery acid to contact your skin,
eyes, clothing or paint finish.
If any electrolyte gets into your
eyes, flush your eyes with
clean water for at least 15 min-
utes and get immediate medi-
cal attention. If possible, con-
tinue to apply water with a
sponge or cloth until medical
attention is received.

accessories contain lead and lead com-
pounds, chemicals known to the state of

coolant temperature and may some-
times operate even when the engine is
not running. Use extreme caution when
working near the blades of the cooling
fan, so that you are not injured by a
rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant
temperature decreases the fan will au-
tomatically shut off. This is a normal
condition.

tioning is in operation.G220B01A-AATChecking Engine Cooling FanThe engine cooling fan should come on
