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 vehicle, ensure
that the doors, tailgate and bonnet
are closed properly, to prevent any
roof lights from remaining on inside
the passenger's compartment;
❒switch off all roof lights inside the
vehicle: the vehicle is however
equipped with a system which
switches all internal lights off
automatically;
❒do not keep accessories (e.g. sound
system, hazard lights, etc.) switched
on for a long time when the engine
is not running;
❒before carrying out any operation on
the electrical system, disconnect the
negative battery cable through the
suitable terminal;
❒Completely tighten the battery
terminals.
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.
243
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.
