Keep fire, sparks, open flames and lit cigarettes well clear of the

vehicle battery.



When charging the vehicle battery, a highly explosive gas mixture

is produced.

WARNING

Battery acid is highly corrosive - it can cause injury, chemical burns or poi-

soning! Corrosive vapours in the air irritate and damage the respiratory

tract and the eyes. The following guidelines must be observed.

■

Always wear protective gloves, eye and skin protection when handling

the vehicle battery.

■

If your eyes or skin come into contact with the electrolytic fluid, immedi-

ately wash the affected area for a few minutes with a lot of water. Get

medical assistance without delay.

■

Keep the vehicle battery away from people who are not completely inde-

pendent (e.g. children).

■

Do not tilt the battery otherwise battery electrolyte may flow out of the

battery vent openings.

WARNING

Working on the car battery may cause explosion, fire, injury or chemical

burn! The following guidelines must be observed.

■

Do not smoke, use open flames or light or transmitting devices.

■

A discharged vehicle battery may freeze slightly. Never charge up a fro-

zen or thawed vehicle battery. Replace a frozen vehicle battery.

■

Never use a damaged vehicle battery.

Do not connect the battery terminals, bridging the two poles will cause a

short circuit.

of damage to the paintwork.

We recommend having all work on the vehicle battery carried out by a spe-

cialist garage.

Checking the condition

Fig. 144

Vehicle battery: Electrolyte level

indicator



Read and observe and on page 116 first.

The battery condition is checked regularly by a specialist garage as part of the

inspection service.

Check the acid level

For car batteries with acid level indicator, acidity can be checked on the basis

of a colour display. In vehicle batteries with the label “AGM” there is no acid

level examination.

Air bubbles can influence the colour of the indicator. For this reason carefully

tap on the indicator before carrying out the check » Fig. 144.

Black colour – electrolyte level is correct.

Colourless or light yellow colour – electrolyte level too low, the battery must

be replaced.

Battery discharge

If frequent short journeys are made, the vehicle battery does not recharge suf-

ficiently.

The battery capacity decreases at low temperatures.
