USEFUL ADVICE FOR EXTENDING THE
LIFE OF YOUR BATTERY
To avoid draining your battery and make it last
longer, observe the following instructions:
❒when you park the car, ensure that the doors,
tailgate, bonnet and flaps are closed properly,
to prevent any roof lights from remaining on
inside the passenger compartment;
❒switch off all roof lights inside the car: the car is
however equipped with a system which switches
the internal lights off automatically;
❒do not keep accessories (e.g. radio, hazard
warning lights, etc.) switched on for a long time
when the engine is not running;
❒before performing any operation on the electrical
system, disconnect the negative battery pole;
❒completely tighten the battery terminals.IMPORTANT If the charge level remains under 50%
for a long time, the battery is damaged by
sulphation, reducing its capacity and efficiency at
start-up.
The battery will also be more at risk of freezing
(this can happen as early as -10°C). Refer to the
paragraph "Car inactivity" in "Starting and driving" if
the car is left parked for a long time.
If after buying the car, you want to install electric
accessories which require permanent electrical
supply (alarm, etc.) or accessories influencing the
electrical supply requirements, contact a Fiat
Dealership whose qualified personnel, in addition to
suggesting the most suitable devices from
Lineaccessori Fiat, will evaluate the overall electrical
consumption, checking whether the car’s electric
system is capable of withstanding the load required,
or whether it should be integrated with a more
powerful battery.
Since these devices continue to consume energy
even when the engine is off, they gradually run
down the battery.
