Not all batteries have a vent.  It is in various places on those that
do.  There should be a clear plastic hose under the seat near the
battery to hook up to the battery.  It's necessary because the battery
is inside the car and the gas that a battery vents is poisonous.  The
vent/hose is to route it outside the car.
