Charging the battery using a battery charger
If this label is present, it is essential
to
 use  only  a  12  V  charger,  to  avoid Â
c
ausing  irreversible  damage  to  the Â
el
ectrical components related to the
Stop

For optimum service life of the battery, it is
essential to maintain an adequate state of
charge.
In some circumstances it may be necessary to
charge
 the  battery:
-
i
f you use your vehicle essentially for short
journeys,
-
Â
i
f
Â
the  vehicle  is  to  be  taken  off  the  road  for Â
s
everal  weeks.
