BATTERY
RECHARGING
191) 192) 193) 194) 195)
To avoid risk of sparks:check that electrical utilities (courtesy
lights and so on) are off before
disconnecting or reconnecting a
battery;
while recharging, turn off the battery
charger before connecting or
disconnecting the battery;
do not place metal objects on the
battery, to prevent a short circuit
between terminals;
wait at least one minute after
stopping the engine before
disconnecting the battery;
check that the terminals have been
reconnected to the battery correctly
after having refitted it.
Connecting a battery charger
The battery charger has to be
compatible with a nominal voltage of
12 Volts.
Do not disconnect the battery while the
engine is started. Follow the battery
charger manufacturer's instructions for
the battery you plan to use.
WARNING
191)Handle the battery carefully, because
it contains sulphuric acid that must not
come into contact with eyes or skin. If that
happens, rinse thoroughly with water. If
necessary, see a doctor. Keep open
flames, incandescent items and sources of
sparks far from the battery's elements: risk
of explosion. When you intervene near the
engine, this last could be hot. Moreover,
the cooling fan could start up at any time.
The
warning light in the engine
compartment serves to remind you of this
condition. Risk of injury.
192)Some batteries can have specific
recharging rules, please ask for information
at a Fiat Dealership. Avoid the risk of
sparks that could cause an immediate
explosion. Proceed with the recharging in a
well ventilated place. Danger of serious
injury.
193)Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive: avoid contact with your skin and
eyes. The battery should be charged in a
well ventilated place, away from naked
flames or possible sources of sparks:
danger of explosion and fire.
194)Do not attempt to charge a frozen
battery: it must be thawed first, otherwise it
may explode. If freezing has occurred, the
battery should be checked by skilled
personnel to make sure that the internal
elements are not damaged and that the
body is not cracked, with the risk of leaking
poisonous and corrosive acid.195)Always turn off the ignition device
before working in the engine compartment
(refer to the “The keys” paragraph in the
“Knowing your vehicle” chapter).
