Battery fluid is poisonous and corrosive:
avoid contact with your skin and eyes.
The battery recharging operation must be
performed in a ventilated place, away from
naked flames or possible sources of sparks to
avoid the risk of explosion and fire.
WARNING
Don’t try to recharge a frozen battery: If
freezing has occurred, the battery should
be checked by skilled personnel to make sure
that the internal elements are not damaged and
that the body is not cracked, with the risk of
leaking poisonous and corrosive acid.
WARNING

Dealership which is equipped with arm lifts and
workshop lifts.
Lift the car only by positioning the ends of the jack arms
or the workshop lift at the points shown in fig. 163
