Battery recharging Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
 If the battery becomes discharged in ashort time (because, for example, the
headlights or interior lights were left on
while the vehicle was not in use),
recharge it by slow charging (trickle)
for 10 hours.
 If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load while the
vehicle is being used, recharge it at 20-
30A for two hours.Items to be reset after the battery hasbeen discharged or the battery hasbeen disconnected. Clock (See Chapter 3)
 Climate control system (See Chapter 4)

your hands on opposite corners.
 Never attempt to charge the bat- tery when the battery cables are
connected.
 The electrical ignition system works with high voltage. Never
touch these components with the
