tem may be damaged.
R the transmission is locked in position P
after disconnectingt he battery. The vehi-
cle is secured against rolling away. You
can then no longer move the vehicle.
The batter yand the cover of the positive
terminal clamp must be installed securely
during operation.
Comply with safety precaution sand take pro-
tective measures when handling batteries. Risk of explosion.
Fire, open flames and smoking are
prohibited when handling the bat-
tery. Avoid creating sparks. Battery acid is caustic
.Avoid con-
tact with skin ,eyes or clothing.
Wear suitable protective clothing,

In order for the batter ytoachieve the maxi-
mum possible servic elife, it must alway sbe
sufficiently charged.
The vehicle battery, like other batteries, can
discharge over time if you do not use the
vehicle. In this case, have the batter ydiscon-
nected at aqualified specialist workshop. You
