14 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Info
Even when there is no load on the 12-V battery, it discharges steadily each day.
The charging level and the method of charging are very important for the service life of the 12-V battery.
Rapid recharging with a high charging current shortens the service life of the battery.
If the charging current, charging voltage, or charging time is exceeded, electrolyte escapes through the safety
valves. This reduces the capacity of the 12-V battery.
If the 12-V battery is discharged by repeated starting, charge the 12-V battery immediately.
If the 12-V battery is left in a discharged state for an extended period, it will become deeply discharged and sulfat-
ing occurs, thus destroying the battery.
The 12-V battery is maintenance-free. The acid level does not have to be checked.

14.4 Changing the main fuse
Warning
Fire hazard Incorrect fuses overload the electrical system.

Info
The main fuse protects all electrical power consumers of the vehicle. It is in the housing of the starter relay next to
the 12-V battery.
