A drained
battery can freeze at temperatures
around 32 QF (0 QC). A frozen or thawed out bat
tery must no longer be used. The battery housing
could be cracked by
the formation of ice, which
could cause
battery acid to leak out¢& .
Battery charging (Maximum charging rate of
30 amps I 14.8 Volt)
When charging at low voltages (e.g. with a trick
le charger ), the battery cables do not have to be
disconnected first. The battery caps should not
be opened when charging a battery.
Checking and Filling
It is not necessary to remove the battery from
the luggage compartment, and it is also not nec
essary to disconnect the cables.
Fast charg ing the battery ( charging rate
above
14. 8 Volts)
For technical reasons do not use a battery charg
er that uses voltage greater than 14.8 Volts to
charge your vehicle's battery.
A WARNING
!-='"
Charging a battery can be dangerous.
-Always follow the operating instructions
provided by
the battery charger manufactur
er when charging your battery.
-Never charge a froze n battery. It may ex
plode because of gas trapped in the ice. Al
low a frozen battery to thaw out first.
-
Do not reuse batteries which were frozen.
The
battery housing may have cracked and
weakened
when the battery froze.
-
Charge the battery in a well ventilated area.
Keep away
from open flame or electrical
spark.
Do not smoke. Hydrogen gas generat
ed by the battery is explosive.
-
To reduce the danger of explosion, never
connect or disconnect charger cables while
the charger is operating.
-Fast charging a battery is dangerous and
should only be attempted by a competent
technician with the proper equipment.
-Batte ry ac id that may spill during charging
should be washed
off with a so lution of
warm water and baking soda to neutralize
t
he acid.
CD Note
Never use a fast charger as a booster to start
the engine. This will seriously damage sensi
tive electronic components, such as control
units, relays, radio,
etc., as well as the battery
charger.
Tips
Only charge the battery through the connec
tions in the engine compartment.
