Any deviation from the instructions
given in this section may lead to
temporary deactivation of the stop-

When the vehicle battery is being
replaced, please ensure that there
are no open ventilation holes in the

ventilation hole is open in this area, it
must be closed off with a dummy cap, and the ventilation in the vicinity of the
negative terminal must be opened.
