BATTERY
RECHARGINGIMPORTANT The battery recharging
procedure is given as information only.
You are advised to contact a Fiat
Dealership to have this operation
carried out.
IMPORTANT After turning the ignition
key to STOP and having closed the
driver side door, wait at least one
minute before disconnecting the
electrical supply from the battery. When
reconnecting the electrical supply to
the battery, make sure that the ignition
key is in the STOP position and the
driver side door is closed.
Charging should be slow at a low
ampere rating for approximately 24
hours. Charging for a longer time may
damage the battery.
164) 165)
IN THE ABSENCE OF
START&STOP SYSTEM
To recharge, proceed 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.
WITH START&STOP
SYSTEM
To recharge, proceed as follows:
❒disconnect the connector A (pressing
the button B) from the sensor C
monitoring the battery conditions, on
the negative pole D of the battery;
❒connect the positive cable of the
battery charger to the positive battery
terminal E and the negative cable to
sensor terminal F as in fig. 230;
❒turn on the charger;
❒at the end of the charging process,
switch the battery charger off;
❒after having disconnected the
charger, reconnect connector A to
the sensor C as in fig. 230.
WARNING
164) Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive: 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.230

IMPORTANT After turning the ignition
key to STOP and having closed the
driver side door, wait at least one
minute before disconnecting the
electrical supply from the battery. When
reconnecting the electrical supply to
the battery, make sure that the ignition
key is in the STOP position and the
driver side door is closed.
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 is also more prone to the
risk of freezing (at temperatures as high
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 vehicle, you want to
install electrical accessories which
require permanent electric supply
(alarm, etc.) or accessories that in any
case burden the electrical supply,
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 vehicle’s electrical
system is capable of withstanding the
load required, or whether it should
be integrated with a more powerful
battery.
Since some of these devices continue
to consume electricity even when
the engine is off, they gradually run
down the battery.
IMPORTANT If a tachograph is fitted, if
the vehicle is parked for a long period
of 5 days, it is advisable to disconnect
the negative battery terminal to
maintain its charge.
If the vehicle is equipped with a battery
disconnection function (disconnector),
see the description of the procedure
in the "Controls" paragraph in the
"Dashboard and controls" section.
WARNING
184) Battery liquid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with skin
and eyes. Keep naked flames
and sources of sparks away from
the battery: risk of explosion and
fire.
185) Using the battery with
insufficient fluid irreparably
damages the battery and may
cause an explosion.
186) Before performing any
operation on the electrical system,
disconnect the negative battery
cable through the suitable
terminal, after having waited at
least one minute from turning the
ignition key to STOP.
187) Always wear appropriate
goggles when working on or near
the battery.
