WARNINGS
WARNING After setting the ignition
device to STOP and closing the driver's
door, wait at least one minute before
disconnecting the electrical supply
from the conventional battery. When
reconnecting the electrical supply to the
conventional battery, make sure that the
ignition device is in the STOP position
and the driver's door is closed.
WARNING Charging should be slow at a
low ampere rating for approximately 24
hours. Charging for a longer time may
damage the conventional battery.
WARNING The cables of the electrical
system must be correctly reconnected to
the conventional battery, i.e. the positive
cable (+) to the positive terminal and
the negative cable () to the negative
terminal. The conventional battery
terminals are marked with the positive
(+) and negative (-) terminal symbols,
and are shown on the cover of the
conventional battery. The battery
terminals must also be corrosion-free
and firmly secured to the terminals. If a
"quick-type" conventional battery charger
is used with the battery fitted on the car,
before connecting it disconnect both
cables of the conventional battery itself.
Do not use a "quick-type" battery charger
to provide the starting voltage.
