CAUTION
TM 9-6230-210-13&P
The 6TN and 6TL batteries can be mixed or matched. However, maintenance-
free batteries cannot be mixed or matched with military batteries. The 6TN and/or
the 6TL batteries will perform properly in hot weather as long as electrolyte levels
are carefully monitored. If the electrolyte expands and causes the Ievel to rise,
some fluid must be removed. If the level becomes too Iow due to evaporation, dis-
tilled water (excluding mineral waters) may be used if distilled water is not avail-
able.
Electrolyte (NSNs 6810-00-249-9354 and 6810-00-843-1640) has a specific
gravity of 1.280 and should be used in these batteries. DO NOT adjust the electro-
lyte in wet batteries to a lower specific gravity
