Maintenance and Specifications
Batteries  normally  produce  explosive  gases  which can  cause
personal  injury. Therefore,   do not  allow flames, sparks  or  lighted
substances   to come  near the  battery.  When  working near  the  battery,
always shield  your  face and  protect  your  eyes. Always  provide proper
ventilation.
When lifting a  plastic-cased battery,  excessive  pressure  on the  end
walls could cause  acid to  flow through  the vent  caps, resulting  in
personal  injury and/or damage  to the  vehicle or battery.  Lift the  battery
with a battery  carrier  or with  your hands  on opposite  corners.
Keep batteries   out  of reach  of children.  Batteries  contain  sulfuric
acid. Avoid  contact  with skin,  eyes  or clothing.  Shield your  eyes
when  working near  the  battery  to protect   against  possible splashing  of
acid solution.  In  case of acid  contact  with  skin or  eyes, flush
immediately  with  water for  a minimum  of 15 minutes  and  get prompt
medical  attention.  If acid  is swallowed,  call a physician  immediately.
Battery  posts,  terminals  and  related  accessories  contain  lead  and
lead compounds.   Wash  ha nds  aft er  ha ndlin g.

some  control conditions   are maintained   by power  from the  battery.  When
the  battery  is disconnected   or a  new battery  is  installed,  the engine  must
relearn  its idle  and fuel  trim strategy   for optimum  driveability  and
