INDEXRECHARGING THE BAT T ERY
IMPORTANT The battery recharging procedure is pro-
vided for information purposes only. You are recom-
mended to go to a Fiat Dealership to have this operation
performed.
We recommend recharging the battery slowly for ap-
proximately 24 hours at low amperage. A prolonged
recharge might damage the battery.
Charge the battery as follows:
F0V0381mfig. 177b
WITHOUT START&STOP SYSTEM
❒disconnect battery negative terminal;
❒ connect the charger cables to the battery terminals,
observing the polarity;
❒ turn on the charger;
❒ when you have finished, turn the charger off before dis-
connecting it from the battery;
❒ reconnect negative battery terminal.
IF THE START&STOP SYSTEM IS INSTALLED
Versions with dummy pole fig. 177b
❒disconnect the quick release negative terminal A from
the dummy negative terminal B; this is because a battery
status monitoring sensor D is fitted on the negative bat-
tery terminal C and should never be disconnected ex-
cept for when the battery is actually replaced;
❒ connect the positive cable of the charger to the posi-
tive pole of the battery and the negative cable to the
dummy negative terminal B;
❒ turn on the charger;
❒ when you have recharged, turn the charger off before
disconnecting it from the battery;
❒ after disconnecting the charger, reconnect the quick
release negative A to the dummy terminal B.

INDEXBattery fluid is poisonous and corrosive:
avoid contact with your skin and eyes. The
battery recharging operation must be performed
in a ventilated place, away from naked flames or
possible sources of sparks to avoid the risk of ex-
plosion and fire.
WARNING
Don’t try to recharge a frozen battery: de-
frost it first or it might explode. If the bat-
tery was frozen, have it inspected by specialised
personnel before recharging to check that the in-
ternal elements are not damaged and that the cas-
ing is not cracked, which could cause poisonous,
corrosive acid to leak.
WARNING
F0V0380mfig. 177c
Versions without dummy pole fig. 177c
❒ Charge the battery as follows, paying utmost attention:
❒ press the button A-fig. 177c to remove the connec-
tor B from the sensor C monitoring the battery con-
ditions (the latter is on the negative pole of the bat-
tery).
❒ connect the positive cable (+) of the charger to the
positive pole (+) of the battery;
❒ connect the negative cable (–) of the charger to the pin
D of the negative pole (–) of the battery;
❒ turn on the charger;
❒ when you have finished, turn the charger off before dis-
connecting the battery;
❒ reconnect the connector B to the battery sensor C.
