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 has
been discharged or the battery has
been disconnected. Clock (See Chapter 3)
