Tips on battery care
! Your car's battery requires no
maintenance in normal vehicle
operation (DIN 43539/T2).
However, have the battery's charge
status and acid level checked at the
start of the cold season by a qualified
specialist workshop, e.g. a smart
center.
! The battery stoppers on the top must be
opened to check the acid level (acid
must come up to MAX mark).
! If the car is used almost exclusively
for short trips, recharge the battery
approximately every three months.
This will preserve your vehicle's
startability and prolong the battery's
operating life.
! Disconnect the car's battery for
extended periods of non!use and
recharge approximately every six
months.
! If the car is left for extended periods
of time (three to four weeks) with the
battery still connected, it must be
recharged.
