damage the battery.
Charge the battery as follows:
❒disconnect the negative battery terminal;
❒connect the charger cables to the battery
terminals, observing the polarity;
❒turn on the charger;
❒when it is recharged, turn the charger off before
disconnecting it from the battery;
❒reconnect the negative battery terminal.
IMPORTANT If the car is equipped with an alarm
system, this has to be disabled using the remote
control (see the "Alarm" paragraph in "Knowing your
car" chapter).
WARNING

avoid contact with your skin and eyes.
The battery should be charged in a well
ventilated place, away from naked flames or
possible sources of sparks: danger of explosion
and fire.
WARNING
Do not attempt to charge a frozen
battery: it must be thawed first ,
otherwise it may explode. If freezing has
occurred, the battery should be checked by
skilled personnel to make sure that the internal

is not cracked, with the risk of leaking
poisonous and corrosive acid.
