Battery: troubleshooting
BA ttEry : troubleshooting  (1/2)
Handle the battery with care
as it contains sulphuric acid,
which must not come into
contact with eyes or skin. If
it does, wash the affected area with
plenty of cold water. If necessary,
consult a doctor.
Ensure that naked flames, red hot
objects and sparks do not come into
contact with the battery as there is a
risk of explosion.
The engine may be hot when car-
rying out operations in close prox-
imity. In addition, the engine cooling
fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
t o avoid all risk of sparks:
– Ensure that any consumers (cour-
tesy lights, etc.) are switched off
before disconnecting or reconnect-
ing the battery.
–

When charging, stop the charger
before connecting or disconnecting
the battery.
–

Do not place metal objects on the
battery to avoid creating a short cir-
cuit between the terminals.
–

Always wait at least twenty seconds
after the engine has been switched
off before disconnecting a battery.
–

Make sure that you reconnect the
battery terminals after refitting.
As the battery is specific  
to
  the  vehicle (presence of
a ventilation pipe to expel
corrosive and explosive
gases), make sure that it is replaced
with a battery that enables this pipe
to be connected. Consult an ap-
proved Dealer.
