Service and Maintenance
5.1
General notes:
The water refilling system is almost maintenance-free and does not require any intensive
service. Hence, the system is subjected only to visual inspection. If required, individual
plugs, hose pipes or fastening material that has become defective may be replaced.
During maintenance, the following points must be attended to:
Please take special care to ensure that the hosepipe connecting pieces are not
contaminated or do not get damaged. Nonetheless, if contamination is found,
clean the relevant components with clean water.
The hosepipe of the waterfilling cart should not get twisted.
The tank of the waterfilling cart must always be filled up with a sufficient quantity
of distilled water (The water quality should conform to IEC EN 60 993).
The waterfilling plugs on the battery should not be damaged. Any damaged plug
must be replaced with a new one. Damaged plugs may lead to overfilling of cells
and discharge of water and electrolyte.
