Picture 5a, 5b, 5c. Picture 5a: The Waterkit, in the delivery state, picture 5b: after it was
connected to a water container. Please note that the lid should not be too small (picture 5c,
left canister). The diameter of the drilling which must be drilled in the lid should be 15-20
mm.

Picture 5d, 5e, 5f : additional to the waterkit a 5 litres of plastic bottle is required. Cut open
the ground of the bottle (see picture 5b), drill al hole on every side of the bottle put through a
round cable canal and fasten it with a cord (also picture 5b). Drill a 15 - 20-mm-hole in the
screw cap and extend it if necessary (see picture 5e). Now the thread part of the tube adaptor
is put in this hole and fastened from the inside with the screw nut (see picture 5f). I
recommend to seal the screw combination inside with some silicone.
Screw the lid on the bottle and hang up the bottle in the locking of the bonnet (5b).
Don’t try to fill water before you haven’t read the whole manual!

AINTANANCE
Distilled water must be supplied to the cells of the accumulators in periodical distances to
compensate the vaporisation and the water loss. To prevent a drifting apart concerning the
voltage of the accumulators the batteries will be charged with a smaller current in the end
than in the main charging phase. The cells will be levelled on the same voltage level. The
overcharge ampere-hours are added up by the board computer. From a certain size of the
overcharge counter the „accumulator water refill needed“ light will flash. If the vehicle is
moved further (and charged) you will have approx. 10 times of charge until the car will stop
operating. From which overcharge on the lamp starts to shine is dependent on your model:
Berlingo/Partner:
From 850Ah overcharge (5.000 – 7000 Km)
Saxo/106:
At 1.000 – 1.100Ah overcharge (5.000 – 7.000 Km)
The practise has shown that these servicing intervals are too big, it comes to the impairment
of the accumulators and to cell damages.
