Absorbent Glass Mat Battery, without Visual Indicator

• Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) batteries are deep cycle-resistant and leakproof.

• Lead acid AGM batteries are filled with electrolyte contained in an absorbent glass mat. The battery is closed and equipped with breather valves.

• These batteries cannot have a "visual indicator" due to the fixed electrolyte. AGM batteries are marked with "AGM" on the battery.

• AGM batteries cannot and must not be opened and distilled water must not be added.

• Only perform a visual inspection.

CAUTION!
Crash safety is inadequate if the incorrect battery is installed.

• If the vehicle was originally equipped with an AGM battery, another AGM battery must be installed when replacing.
