3.10 Charging the 12-V battery
Warning
Risk of injury Battery acid and battery gases cause serious chemical burns.
– Keep 12 V batteries out of the reach of children.
– Wear suitable protective clothing and safety glasses.
– Avoid contact with battery acid and battery gases.
– Keep sparks or open flames away from the 12 V battery.
– Only charge 12 V batteries in well-ventilated rooms.
– Rinse the affected area immediately with plenty of water in the event of contact with the skin.
– Rinse eyes with water for at least 15 minutes and consult a doctor immediately if battery acid and
battery gases get into the eyes.
Note
Environmental hazard 12 V batteries contain environmentally hazardous materials.
– Do not dispose of 12 V batteries as household waste.
– Dispose of 12 V batteries at a collection point for used batteries.
Note
Environmental hazard Hazardous substances cause environmental damage.
– Dispose of oils, grease, filters, fuel, cleaning agents, brake fluid, etc., correctly and in compliance with
the applicable regulations.
Info
Even when there is no load on the 12-V battery, it discharges steadily.
The charging level and the method of charging are very important for the service life of the 12-V battery.
Rapid recharging with a high charging current shortens the service life of the battery.
If the charging current, charging voltage, and charging time are exceeded, the 12-V battery will be
destroyed.
If the 12-V battery is depleted from starting the vehicle repeatedly, the battery must be charged immedi-
ately.
If the 12-V battery is left in a discharged state for an extended period, it will become deeply discharged
and sulfating occurs, destroying the battery.
The 12-V battery is maintenance-free, i.e., the acid level does not have to be checked.
