Battery
Maintenance instructions
Correct battery maintenance
combined with proper charging
and storage procedures extends
the battery's service life, and is
also required for warranty claims.
Compliance with the points be-
low is important in order to maxi-
mize battery life:
Keep the surface of the battery
clean and dry
Do not open the battery
Do not top up with water
Be sure to read and comply
with the instructions for charg-
ing the battery on the following
pages
Do not turn the battery upside
down.
If the battery is not discon-
nected, the onboard elec-
tronics (clock etc.) will drain the
battery. This can cause the bat-
tery to run flat. If this happens,
warranty claims will not be ac-
cepted.
During driving breaks of more
than 4 weeks, a trickle-charger
should be connected to the
battery.
