Watch Your Ammet'er
It's Your Battery's 0. K Signal
THAT little dial will keep you posted on the amount of electrical eneW
that is bei4g put into your battery. If the needle doesn't respond
promptly when your engine is running, that's your danger signal. Go to
a battery service station imrnediately--a Prest-O-Lite Service Station by
all means.
If you are luckily the owner of a Prest-O-Lite Storage Battery, you can
know that your battery was tested and your generator carefully adjusted to
recharge it correctly when the battery was installed in your car.
There's one thing, however, you ougilt to watch -how far over the
needle goes when the battery is recharging. Overcharging may bum out
your battery.
Whatever make of car you drive . -whatever battery you now have -
come in and let us test your battery, give you the correct charging rate to
be indicated by y*ur ammeter, and prevent damage to your battery.
When repairs or recharging are necessary, remember we carry a com-
plete stock of repair parts for all makes of batteries.
We will not try to 'sell yda a new battery as long as there is a spark of
life in your old one. But when the time cornes for replacement, be sure to
get a Prest-O-Lite-the battery that gives brighter lights, surer starts,
greater power and longer service.
