IF THE BATTERY
IS FLAT
IMPORTANTThe description of the
battery charging procedure is described
only for informative purposes. This op-
eration should be carried out by Alfa
Romeo Authorized Services.
Charging should be slow at a low amp
rating for 24 hours. Charging for a
longer time may damage the battery.Charge the battery as follows:
❒disconnect battery negative terminal
(–);
❒connect the charger cables to the bat-
tery terminals, observing the poles;
❒ turn on the charger;
❒when you have finished, turn the
charger off before disconnecting the
battery;
❒reconnect battery negative terminal
(–).
The liquid in the battery
is poisonous and corro-
sive. Do not let it touch the
skin or eyes. Recharging the
battery should be done in a
well ventilated area away
from naked flames or possible
sources of sparks: explosion
and fire risk.
WARNING
Do not attempt to
recharge a frozen bat-
tery. Thaw it first, otherwise
it could explode. If the battery
froze, make sure the internal
elements are not broken and
that the casing is not cracked:
risk of spilling the poisonous
and corrosive fluid.
