completely tighten the battery
terminals.
WARNING If the charge level remains
under 50% for a long time, the battery
is damaged by sulphation, reducing
its capacity and efficiency at start-up.
The battery will also be more at risk of
freezing (this can happen as early as
-10
°
C). Refer to the "Car inactivity"
paragraph in "Starting and driving"
chapter if the car is left parked for a
long time. If after buying the car, you
want to install electrical accessories
that require permanent electrical
supply (alarm, etc.) or accessories
that in any case burden the electrical
supply, contact an Abarth Dealership
whose qualified personnel, in addition
to suggesting the most suitable
devices available in Lineaccessori
Abarth, will evaluate the overall electric
consumption, checking whether the
car’s electrical system is capable of
withstanding the load required, or
whether it should be integrated with a
more powerful battery. Since some of
these devices continue to consume
electricity even when the engine is off,
they gradually run down the battery.
WARNING
154)
Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin and
eyes. Keep open flames away from the
battery and do not use objects that might
create sparks: risk of explosion and fire.
155)
Using the battery with low fluid will
irreparably damage the battery and may
cause an explosion.
156)
If the car must remain unused for
a long time at a very low temperature,
remove the conventional battery and take
it to a warm place, to avoid freezing.
157)
Always wear appropriate goggles to
protect your eyes when working on or near
the conventional battery.
IMPORTANT
38)
Incorrect installation of electric and
electronic devices may cause severe
damage to your car. After purchasing your
car, if you wish to install any accessories
(car alarm, car phone etc.), please contact
your Abarth Dealership, which will suggest
the most appropriate devices for your car
and will, most importantly, recommend
installing a highercapacity battery.
IMPORTANT
5)
Batteries contain substances which
are very harmful for the environment. It is
advisable to contact an Abarth Dealership
for battery replacement.
RECHARGING THE
BATTERY
158) 159)
WARNING The battery recharging
procedure is given as information only.
It is advisable to contact an Abarth
Dealership to have this operation
performed. Charging should be slow at
a low ampere rating for approximately
24 hours. Charging for a longer time
may damage the battery.
To recharge, proceed as follows:
disconnect the terminal from the
negative battery pole;
connect the charger cables to the
battery terminals, observing the
polarity;
turn on the battery charger;
when it is recharged, turn the charger
off before disconnecting it from the
battery;
reconnect the terminal to the
negative battery pole.
WARNING The cables of the electrical
system must be correctly reconnected
to the battery, i.e. the positive cable
(+) to the positive terminal and the
negative cable (
–
) to the negative
terminal. The battery terminals are
marked with the positive (+) and
before performing any operation
on the electrical system, disconnect
the cable from the negative battery
terminal;
