h. Battery Inspection, Cleaning and Drying

Note: The best time to clean the battery compartment is

when the battery is removed from the vehicle.

1. Periodically inspect the battery for accumulation of

dirt or corrosion on the battery, terminals, cable ends

and battery retaining hardware. Also, check that the

battery case and cover are not cracked or leaking,

and that the terminal posts are not broken or loose.

2. Prepare a mixture of baking soda and water, and

obtain a non-metallic scrub brush. Dip the brush in

the mixture, and scrub the battery and cable

terminals. Also, clean the battery mounting area on

the vehicle frame before replacing the battery.

3. Dry the battery with a clean, lint-free cloth.

positive battery terminal post.

4. Connect the negative (–) cable (Fig. 9-49, 1) to the
