Battery service
WARNING!
Danger of cauterisation ! Danger of explosion!
When working on the battery do not use open fire,
do not smoke!
The battery contains acid. Do not let acid come in
contact with skin or clothes!
Wear protective clothing!
Do not lay any tools on the battery!
For recharging remove the plugs from the battery
to avoid the accumulation of highly explosive
gases.
ENVIRONMENT!
Dispose of the old batteries environmentally.
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 occa-
sionally, even cause damage to the battery as a
result of exhaustive discharge.
The following therefore applies for the service life:
1.
Switch off all consumers (e.g. ignition, light, inside light,
radio).
2.
Check open-circuit voltage of the battery at regular intervals.
At least once per month.
