Maintenance and Service
General information on handling
batteries
Pay attention to the safety infor-
mation n paragraph 1.4 and 1.5.2
as well as the information on
servicing and maintenance in the
battery documents.
• Always disconnect the battery plug be-
fore starting any work on the electrical
installation.
• Batteries may only be handled and
changed by properly skilled mainte-
nance personnel.
• Pay attention to legal requirements and
local directives.
5.4.1
Charging batteries
Before starting the vehicle up for
the first time, the batteries to be
used must be properly charged
by implementing the initial battery
charge routine, see paragraph
2.2. PowerBoss assumes no
liability for damage to the battery
caused by a fault when the bat-
tery is charged for the first time.
There must be sufficient ventila-
tion in the charging area - risk of
explosion!
The seat console (Fig. 23/4)
must be open during the battery
charging process to prevent the
development of explosive oxyhy-
drogen!
Only use the original charger!
Pay attention that the insulation
is not initially damaged and not
damaged during the charging
process. The cable must not rub
against anything. Do not use the
charger if the insulation is dam-
aged.
We recommended charging the bat-
tery when at least one dot of the battery
indicator has gone out after operating
the vehicle. The indicator (Fig. 23/1) also
indicates the charge status of the batteries
during the charging process.
• Connect the battery plug (Fig. 23/3) to
the battery charger supplied.
• Pay attention to the information in the
operating manual supplied with the
charger and the manual from battery
manufacturer.
Do not inhale battery gases.
