Maintenance and Care
CAUTION!
•
Before disconnecting the battery,
lower the windows a few centimeters,
to avoid damaging the seal, the glass
and the RHT when opening and
closing the door. When the battery is
connected, the lowering of the window
is performed automatically when
the door is opened and closed. The
windows must remain lowered until the
charged battery is reconnected.
•
Never disconnect the battery from the
electrical system when the engine is
running.
•
To temporarily disconnect the vehicle
electrical system from the battery,
simply remove the cable end with
quick coupling from to the negative
post (–) of the battery.
•
If the battery needs to be removed
from its compartment, you must first
detach the terminal clamp to the
negative post (–) and then the other
terminal clamp to the positive post (+),
after removing the protective cover.
Battery posts are marked positive (+)
and negative (–) and are identified on
the battery case.
To Reconnect the Battery
CAUTION!
•
It is essential when replacing the
cables on the battery that the positive
cable is attached to the positive post
(+) and the negative cable is attached
to the negative post (–).
•
Cable clamps should be tight on the
terminal posts and free of corrosion.
After the battery has been disconnected
and re-connected and before starting
the engine it is necessary to proceed as
follows:
• Unlock and lock the doors using the key
fob.
• Close manually the rear hood (for
MC20) or the liftgate (for MC20 Cielo)
unlock it with the key fob and then lock
it manually on more time.
• Initialize the climate control system by
activating the system and pressing the
"AUTO" control as described in chapter
"Air Conditioning Controls" in section
"Instruments and Controls".
• Completely open and close the RHT
and the Backlite Rear Screen to
initialize the systems (for MC20 Cielo
only)
• Turn on the MIA and set the date and
time (see "Functions of Setting Menu
on MIA" in section "Instruments and
Controls").
