3.17 Charging the 12-V battery
Warning
Risk of injury 12 V batteries contain harmful substances.
–
Keep 12 V batteries out of the reach of children.
–
Keep sparks and open flames away from 12 V batteries.
–
Only charge 12 V batteries in well-ventilated rooms.
–
Maintain a minimum clearance from inflammable materials when charging 12 V batteries.
Minimum clearance
1 m (3 ft)
–
Do not charge deeply discharged 12 V batteries if the charge is already below the minimum voltage.
Minimum voltage before the start of the charge
9 V
–
Dispose of 12 V batteries with less than the minimum voltage correctly.
Note
Environmental hazard
12 V batteries contain environmentally hazardous materials.
–
Do not dispose of 12 V batteries as household waste.
–
Dispose of 12 V batteries at a collection point for used batteries.
Note
Environmental hazard Hazardous substances cause environmental damage.
–
Dispose of oils, grease, filters, fuel, cleaning agents, brake fluid, etc., correctly and in compliance with
the applicable regulations.
Info
Even if there is no load on the 12-V battery, it discharges 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, and charging time are exceeded, the 12-V battery will be
destroyed.
If the 12-V battery is depleted from starting the vehicle repeatedly, the battery must be charged immedi-
ately.
If the 12-V battery is left in a discharged state for an extended period, it will become deeply discharged
and suffer a loss of capacity, destroying the battery.
The 12-V battery is maintenance-free.
