BATTERY: 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.
Ensure that naked flames, red hot
objects and sparks do not come into
contact with the battery as there is a
risk of explosion.
To 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.
Before performing any
action in the engine com-
partment, the ignition must
be switched off (please see
the information on “Starting, stop-
ping the engine” in Section 2).
Connecting a battery charger
The battery charger must be com-
patible with a battery with nominal
voltage of 12 volts.
Switch the engine off and then discon-
nect both battery leads starting with
the negative terminal.
Do not disconnect the battery when the
engine is running. Follow the instruc-
tions given by the manufacturer of
the battery charger you are using.
Please note when work-
ing close to the engine that
it may be hot. In addition,
the engine cooling fan may
start at any moment. The

warning light in the engine compart-
ment reminds you of this.
