A. CHECKING AND CHARGING
THE BATTERY
The battery used in this vehicle is a mainte-
nance free (MF) “Valve Regulated Lead
Acid Battery”, it has been pre-filled with
electrolyte at the factory so there is no need
to add fluid at any time.
1. Check:
Using a digital volt meter, the state of a dis-
charged MF battery can be checked by
measuring open-circuit voltage (the voltage
measured with the positive and negative
terminals being disconnected).
Open-circuit voltage
12.8 V or higher
Charging time
Charging is not necessary
DDo not attempt boost charging under
any circumstances.
DBattery electrolyte is poisonous and
dangerous, causing severe burns,
etc. It contains sulfuric acid. Avoid
contact with skin, eyes or clothing.
Antidote: External -Flush with water. In-
ternal-Drink large quantities of water or
milk. Follow with milk of magnesia, beat-
en egg, or vegetable oil. Call physician
immediately.
Eyes: Flush with water for 15 minutes
and get prompt medical attention. Bat-
teries produce explosive gases. Keep
sparks, flame, cigarettes, etc., away.
Ventilate when charging or using in en-
closed space. Always shield eyes when
working near batteries.
KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHIL-
DREN.
DIf the voltage is lower than 12.8 V the
battery must be charged. If this is not
done, the life of the battery will be
shortened drastically. Refer to the
service manual for battery charging
instructions.
DNever remove the strip of caps, nor
add any water or electrolyte.

I. CHECKING THE BRAKE FLUID
LEVEL
1. Stand the vehicle on a level surface.
DPlace the vehicle on a suitable stand.
DMake sure that the vehicle is upright.
2. Check:
Dbrake fluid level
Below the minimum level mark (a) !
Add the recommended brake fluid to the
proper level.
Recommended brake fluid
DOT 4
AFront brake
BRear brake
DUse only designated brake fluid.
Other brake fluids may cause the rub-
er seals to deteriorate, causing leak-
age and poor brake performance.
DRefill with the same type of brake
fluid that is already in the system.
Mixing brake fluids may result in a
harmful chemical reaction, leading to
poor brake performance.
DWhen refilling, be careful that water
does not enter the reservoir. Water
will significantly lower the boiling
point of the brake fluid and could
cause vapor lock.
Brake fluid may damage painted sur-
faces and plastic parts. Therefore, al-
ways clean up any split brake fluid im-
mediately.
In order to ensure a correct reading of the
brake fluid level, make sure that the top of
the reservoir is level.
