Battery
BA tter Y: troubleshooting
Handle the battery with care
as it contains sulphuric acid,
which must not come into
contact with eyes or skin. If
it does, wash the affected area with
plenty of cold water. If necessary,
consult a doctor.
Ensure that naked flames, red hot
objects and sparks do not come into
contact with the battery as there is a
risk of explosion.
The engine may be hot when car -
rying out operations in close prox -
imity. In addition, the engine cooling
fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
t o avoid all risk of sparks:
– Ensure that any electrical consumers
(courtesy lights, etc.) are switched
off before disconnecting or recon -
necting the battery.
– When charging, stop the charger
before connecting or disconnecting
the battery.
– Do not place metal objects on the
battery to avoid creating a short cir-
cuit between the terminals.
– Always wait at least one minute after
the engine has been switched off
before disconnecting a battery.
– Make sure that you reconnect the
battery terminals after refitting.
