Working with the battery
Battery acid is very caustic. Avoid contact with battery acid under all circumstances. If clothing,
skin or eyes have come in contact with battery acid, rinse the affected parts immediately with
water. If the eyes are affected, immediately seek medical attention! Neutralise spilled battery acid
immediately.
When servicing a battery, always wear rubber gloves and eye protection.

Open the engine hood (page 74). Always close the engine hood after the work is done.
Battery service

Regular maintenance can extend the life cycle of the battery
considerably.

Check the battery (1) for tightness, tighten with nuts (3 and
4), if necessary.

Check the battery terminal (2 and 5) for cleanliness, clean-
ing it if necessary and covering it with petroleum jelly.
Be careful when cleaning the positive terminal - risk
of short circuit! Do not use metal tools.

Check the fluid level of the battery (figure above, position
1). The battery fluid level should be between LOWER
LEVEL and UPPER LEVEL at the filler port (C). If neces-
sary, refill with distilled water.
Do not open maintenance-free batteries!
