11.5.2 Winter lay-up
Additional measures are required if laying up the vehicle over winter:
Water system Empty the entire water system. Blow out the residual water from the
water pipes (0.5 bar max.). Leave the water taps on in central posi-
tion. Leave the safety/drainage valve and all drain cocks open. Ob-
serve the notes in chapter 10
Switch off the safety/drainage valve using the battery cut-off switch
on the transformer/rectifier. Otherwise the battery will become dis-
charged too quickly
If the safety/drainage valve is switched off, the water
system is no longer sufficiently protected against frost.
