  Q: What precautions should be followed when maintaining the Honda Ridgeline battery?

  A: Be safe when maintaining your vehicle's battery. This means that the engine must be turned off and the negative battery terminal disconnected. Always find a well-ventilated place to position yourself because among the other things you will be handling is sulfuric acid in the battery. While doing so, one should put on safety glasses as well as gloves for personal protection. Check for external problems like corrosion or loose connections and clean with a baking soda solution and use a brush designed for batteries. You need to see that your battery tray and clamp are in good condition. Rinse with a baking soda solution to remove the corrosions. After finding any damaged parts, they should be primed and then painted. Do not use high-amperage chargers or rapid boosts; instead employ a slow-rate trickle charger for discharges and maintaining charge.
