BATTERY
Depending on the vehicle, the battery
may be a low maintenance version.
Low maintenance battery
A label on the battery will indicate if the
battery is the low maintenance type.
As the battery is specific
to the vehicle (presence of
a ventilation pipe to expel
corrosive and explosive
gases), make sure that it is replaced
with a battery that enables this pipe
to be connected. Consult an ap-
proved Dealer.
Battery requiring
maintenance
Checking intervals:
Every six months, open cover 1.
Remove the caps and check the level.
Liquid
Distilled or demineralised water to
1.5 cm above the plates. Never add
electrolyte or other products.
Replacing the battery
As this operation is complex, we advise
you to contact an approved dealer.
Handle the battery with
care as it contains sulphu-
ric acid, which must not
come into contact with eyes
or skin. If it does, wash the affected
area with plenty of water and see a
doctor if necessary.
Ensure that naked flames, red hot
objects and sparks do not come into
contact with the battery as there is a
risk of explosion.
