CHARGING THE BATTERY USING
A CHARGER
- disconnect the battery located under the cab floor,
- follow the instructions for use given by the
battery charger manufacturer,
- reconnect starting with the negative (-) terminal,
- check that the terminals and connectors are clean. If they are covered with sulphate
(white or greenish deposit), disconnect
them and clean them. The charging operation must be carried
out in a ventilated area away from naked
flames or any possible sources of sparks to
eliminate the risk of explosion and fire.
Do not attempt to charge a frozen battery: it
must first be thawed to eliminate the risks of
explosion. If the battery has frozen, before
charging it have it checked by a specialist
who will check that the internal components
have not been damaged and that the
container is not cracked, which could mean
that there is a risk of a leak of toxic and
corrosive acid.
STARTING FROM ANOTHER
BATTERY
- connect the red cable to the metal point
A
then to the positive (+) terminal of the slave
battery B,
- connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative (-) terminal of the
slave battery B,
- connect the other end of the green or black
cable to the earth point C on your vehicle,
- operate the starter, let the engine run,
- wait for the engine to return to idle, then disconnect the cables.
