least one hour after switching off the motor
and/or the end of the charge cycle before
carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap
by two turns to allow the pressure to drop.
When the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the level.
Ancillaries battery
electrolyte level
Remove the battery protective cover to check
this level (refer to the"ancillaries battery"
section).
The electrolyte level should be between the
