Maintenance

G190200AUN

Battery recharging

Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,

calcium-based battery.

• If the battery becomes discharged in a

short time (because, for example, the

headlights or interior lights were left on

while the vehicle was not in use),

recharge it by slow charging (trickle)

for 10 hours.

• If the battery gradually discharges

because of high electric load while the

vehicle is being used, recharge it at 20-

30A for two hours.

(Continued)

• The electrical ignition system

works with high voltage. Never

touch these components with the

engine running or the ignition

switched on.

Failure to follow the above warn-

ings can result in serious bodily

injury or death.
