CHECKING AND REFILLING
TIPS AND MAINTENANCE
Location
The battery is in the engine compartment.
Start with the help of another battery. See
"Emergency starting" chapter.
Checking a
acid llevel
Take the following warnings of the
"Engine compartment" chapter into
account before starting any type of work
on the engine or the engine compart-
ment.
The acid/electrolyte level should be
checked regularly in the following cases:
– high mileage
– in countries with a warm climate
– old battery
The battery is otherwise service-free.
The acid level should always be around
the max. mark on the longside of the bat-
tery. It should never be filled above the
max. mark nor be allowed to drop below
the min. mark.
It is recommended that the acid level be
checked and corrected by a Technical
Service Centre.
Battery w
with a
a m
magic e
eye*
A round viewing window is located on the
upper side of the battery (see arrow). This
magiceye will change its color according
to the charge condition or the acid level of
the battery.
Air bubbles can distort the true color. You
should, therefore, tap carefully on the
magiceye.
If the display in the viewing window has
no color or is light yellow, the acid level in
the battery is too low. Distilled water must
be added. We recommend that the battery
be replaced if it is older than 5 years.
It is recommended that the acid level be
checked and corrected by a Technical
Service Centre.
The colour displays of green and black are
only of use to the Technical Service Centre
since it facilitates the diagnosis of the
battery.
