19.3. Replacing the Batteries
Karma strongly recommends that bettery replacement and installation always be done by a qualified
technician. To replace the batteries, please refer to the photo below of the batteries equipped on the
Morgan series, and follow the below instructions to remove and load the batteries. The weight of one
battery could be more than 10 kg. Please handle it with care.

is a form of acid and may cause harmful or damaging burns. Should the liquid come into
