Warning
Batteries emit an explosive gas
mixture which may be ignited.
Therefore, you should keep
sparks and flames away from the
battery at all times. Never smoke
near a battery.
Batteries contain sulphuric acid.
If acid contacts skin or clothing,
flush immediately with plenty of
water. In case of eye contact,
flush with plenty of water and
contact a doctor immediately.
Battery acid also damages paint
and fabrics. To minimise damage,
wash off immediately.

Warning (Continued)
Take care with all metal objects
and tools including items you may
wear (for example jewellery, rings
and metal watch bands) near
battery terminals.
The vehicle battery is maintenance
free, provided that the driving profile
allows sufficient charging of the
battery. Short distance driving and
frequent engine starts can discharge
the battery. Avoid the use of
unnecessary electrical consumers.
Batteries must be disposed of at an
appropriate recycling collection
point.
Laying up the vehicle for more than
four weeks can lead to battery
discharge. Disconnect the battery
according to the procedure
described in Battery Disconnection,
thus avoiding its discharge.
