8.8.3 Battery service
Maintenance free batteries also need care. Mainte-
nance free only means that the fluid level does not
need to be checked.
Each battery suffers under self-discharge, which
may, in not checked occasionally, even cause
damage to the battery as a result of exhaustive
discharge.
Exhausted batteries (batteries with formation of
sulphate on the plates) are not covered under war-
ranty!
