Danger
Risk of poisoning and injury from
battery acid
Wear safety goggles and protective
gloves. Do not allow battery acid to
come into contact with skin. If you
get battery acid on your face or in
your eyes, wash off immediately
with cold water and consult a
doctor.
If you accidentally swallow battery
acid, drink plenty of water and
consult a doctor immediately. Store
batteries out of the reach of
children. Never tilt the battery, as
battery acid may run out.
Bring the remaining, unused
battery acid to your dealer or to a
waste disposal company.
Caution
Risk of fire, explosion and
corrosion caused by battery acid
and gases emitted by battery acid
Immediately clean parts of the unit
splashed by battery acid. Battery
acid is corrosive.
Do not smoke, keep burning and
hot objects away. Charge batteries
in a well ventilated and dry room
only. There is a risk of a possible
short circuit when working with the
battery. Do not place any tools or
metal objects on the battery.
If a “maintenance-free/sealed”
battery is supplied (Type 1)
(battery without sealing plugs)
The battery is filled with battery
acid and sealed at the factory. But
even a “maintenance-free” battery
needs servicing to ensure it has a
certain service life.

Keep the battery clean.

Avoid tilting the battery.
Electrolyte liquid will run out of
even a “sealed” battery if it is
tilted.
If an unfilled battery is supplied
(Type 2)
(battery with sealing plugs)

Remove sealing plugs from the
battery cells.

Slowly fill each cell with battery
acid up to 1 cm below the filling
orifice.

Leave battery to stand for 30
minutes so that the lead can
absorb the battery acid.

Check the acid level and, if
required, top up the battery acid.

Before using the unit for the first
time, charge the battery with a
battery charger (maximum
charging current 12 volts, 6
amps) for 2–6 hours. After
charging the battery, first pull out
the battery charger plug, then
remove the battery (see also
operating instructions for the
battery charger).
