  Before refilling distilled water, check the electrolyte levels. Refer to the battery 

system's project-specific documentation for instructions 

  Ensure that the battery of the waterfilling cart is charged (LED 5 lights up in green 

colour).  

  The storage tank must be filled up sufficiently. 

  The residual water tank must be empty. 

 

1.  Detach the flame arrestor from the battery. 

 

2.  Connect both the hose pipes of the waterfilling cart to the battery using the quick 

couplers. 

 

 

Caution: 

Disconnect  the  waterfilling  cart  from  the  mains  supply;  it  should  not  be 
connected to the mains during the filling operation.
