USEFUL ADVICE
FOR LENGTHENING
THE LIFE OF YOUR BATTERY
When you park the car, ensure the
doors, boot and bonnet are closed
properly. The ceiling and map-read-
ing lights must be off.
Do not leave accessories (e.g. radio,
hazard lights, etc.) switched on for a
long time when the engine is not run-
ning.
IMPORTANTIf the battery is left
with a charge of less than 50% for a
long time it will be damaged by sul-
phation, engine startup will deterio-
rate and it will be more subject to
freezing (this may occur at –10°C).
If the car is to be inactive for a long
period of time, refer to the “Storing
the car” paragraph in the “Driving
your car” section.
The liquid in the battery
is poisonous and corrosive.
Do not let it touch the skin
or eyes. Do not bring naked flames
or possible sources of sparks near
to the battery: fire and explosion
risk.
Incorrect fitting of elec-
trical and electronic ac-
cessories can seriously
damage the car.
IMPORTANTWhen removing/in-
stalling the battery, make sure the
battery is mechanically secured cor-
rectly.
Running the car with the
fluid level too low could
damage the battery beyond
repair, even breaking the casing
and allowing the acid contained in
it to leak out completely.
Always wear goggles to
protect the eyes when
working on or near the
battery.
If the car is to remain un-
used for a long period in
very cold weather, remove
the battery and keep it in a warm
place, otherwise it could freeze.
CHECKING THE BATTERY
FLUID LEVEL (electrolyte)
Check the electrolyte level and top
up, if required, at the frequency
shown in the Service Schedule in this
chapter. Have this operation carried
out at a LANCIA Dealership.
