en the clamps to the torque specified in this workshop manual.
If the clamps are not correctly seated and tightened, the wiring
could burn, which could result in electrical system malfunc‐
tions. Which will cause malfunctions in the electrical system.
Therefore it can no longer be guaranteed that the vehicle will
function correctly.
2.3 Checking battery with magic eye
WARNING
Danger of injury! Observe warning notices and safety regula‐
tions ⇒ page 2 !
The magic eye (condition indicator) provides information on the
electrolyte level and condition (charge state) of the battery.
Batteries with a magic eye are produced in two versions:
♦ Low maintenance ⇒ page 1
♦ Maintenance-free ⇒ page 1
Note
Because the magic eye is located in only one cell, the display
applies only to this cell. An exact determination of battery's con‐
dition is only possible through a load test ⇒ page 12 .
– Before performing a visual check, tap the magic eye lightly and
carefully with the handle of a screwdriver.
The air bubbles, which can influence the display, will dissipate
when doing this. The colour display of the magic eye will therefore
be more accurate.
Note
♦ Air bubbles can form below the magic eye particularly when
the battery is being charged, including during normal vehicle
operation. These falsify the colour display of the magic eye.
♦ The magic eye can be located at various positions on the bat‐
tery.
Three different colour displays are possible:
♦ “Green”, battery is charged sufficiently.
♦ “Black”, Battery partly discharged, charge state < 65 % or
completely discharged.
♦ “Colourless or yellow”, battery must be renewed.
Note
♦ Charging battery with battery charger -VAS 5095 A-
⇒ page 15 .
♦ Charging battery with battery charger -VAS 5900-
⇒ page 19 .
