Starter battery
The electrical system is single-pole and uses the chassis and engine casing as a conductor. The starter battery is used to start up the electri- cal system and drive the starter motor as well asother electrical equipment in the car. The starter battery should be replaced by a workshop 13
.
The car has a voltage-regulated AC alternator. The starter battery is a 12 V AGM battery, designed for the carbon dioxide reducing func-tions, Start/Stop and regenerative charging, andto support the functionality of the car's differentsystems. The service life and function of the starter battery is influenced by factors such as the number ofstarts, discharging, driving style, driving condi-tions, climatic conditions etc. • Never disconnect the starter battery when the engine is running.
• Check that the cables to the starter batteryare correctly connected and properly tight-ened.
WARNING
•
The battery can generate oxyhydrogen gas, which is highly explosive. A spark canbe formed if a jump lead is connectedincorrectly, and this can be enough forthe battery to explode.
• The battery contains sulphuric acid, whichcan cause serious burns.
• If sulphuric acid comes into contact witheyes, skin or clothing, flush with largequantities of water. If acid splashes intothe eyes - seek medical attention imme-diately.
When connecting an external starter battery orbattery charger, use the car's charging points inthe engine compartment. The battery terminalson the car's starter battery in the cargo area must not be used.
During charging, both the starter battery and the support battery are charged.
