Your vehicle is fitted with a low maintenance
battery.
In hot climates more frequent checks of the
battery electrolyte le vel and condition are
required. If necessary, the battery cells can be
topped up using di stilled water. 1.
Press the clips to release the back of the
cover.
2. Slide the cover forward, and lift it off.
3. Disconnect the vent tube.
4. Prise up the inner cover using a screw
driver blade or similar blunt implement.
Run the screwdriver forward to release the
inner cover edge.
5. Slide the inner cover out under the battery
cable.
Remove all metal
jewellery before
working on, or near, the battery, and
never allow metal tools or vehicle components
to come into contact with the battery
terminals. Metal objects can cause sparks,
and/or short circuits, re sulting in an explosion.
Do not allow the battery posts or
terminals to come into contact with
your skin. They contain lead, and lead
compounds which are toxic. Always wash
your hands thoroughly after handling the
battery.
CAUTION
Do not allow battery electrolyte to come
into contact with fabrics or painted
surfaces. If battery electrolyte comes into
contact with any surfac e, the surface should
be washed down immediately with copious
amounts of clean water. Battery electrolyte is
both corrosive and toxic, and can damage a
wide range of materials if left.
