Do not lean over a battery.
If the indicator/warning lamps in the instrument
cluster do not light up at low temperatures, it is

tures slightly above or below freezing point.
During starting assistance or battery charg‐

The service life of a battery that has been
thawed may be dramatically shortened.
It is recommended that you have a thawed bat‐
tery checked at a qualified specialist workshop.
