9 Storing the battery

NOTE

The battery should not be stored for longer than 3 months without charging as

otherwise it will no longer be functional.

If the battery is to be taken out of service for a long period, it should be stored fully

charged in a dry room protected from frost. To ensure the availability of the battery

the following charges can be selected:

– Monthly compensation charge for PzS and PzB batteries or 3-monthly full charge

for PzV batteries.

– Trickle charge for a charge voltage of 2.23 volts x no. of cells for PzS, PzM and PzB

batteries or 2.25 volts x no. of cells for PzV batteries.

If the battery is to be taken out of service for a long period ( > 3 months), it should, as

far as possible, be charged to 50% of its charge level and stored in a dry room

protected from frost.

service department immediately.

service department or a customer service organisation authorised by the
