Practical tips
2. When the repair is finished, recon-
nect the negative pole of the battery.
Switch off all electrical devices before re-
connecting the battery. Reconnect first the
positive cable and then the negative cable.
Never reverse the polarity of the connec-
tions. This could cause an electrical fire.
Ensure that the vent hose is always con-
nected to the battery.
Never use damaged batteries. This could
cause an explosion! Replace a damaged
battery immediately.
CAUTION
Never disconnect the battery if the igni-
tion is switched on or if the engine is run-
ning. This could damage the electrical sys-
tem or electronic components.
Charging the battery
Terminals for charging the battery are fitted
in the engine compartment.
Note the warnings in Important
safety warnings for handling a vehicle
battery on page 319 and .
Switch off all electrical devices. Remove
the ignition key.
Raise the bonnet page 17.
Open the battery cover.
Connect the charger clamps as described
to the positive pole of the battery (+) and
exclusively to an earth on the bodywork
(–).
Only use a charger which is compatible for
use with 12 V nominal voltage batteries.
The charge must not exceed a voltage of
15 V.
Now connect the battery charger to the
power socket and switch on.
At the end of the charging process: switch
off the battery charger and disconnect the
power socket cable.
Finally disconnect the charger cables from
the battery.
Replace the battery cover correctly.
Close the bonnet page 17.
Important: Before you charge the battery
make sure you read the manufacturer's in-
structions for using the battery charger.
WARNING
Never charge a battery that has frozen: re-
place it! Failure to do so may lead to an ex-
plosion.
Note
Use only the terminals in the engine com-
partment to charge the battery.
Replacing the battery
The new battery should have the same spec-
ifications (amperage, load and voltage) as
the used battery.
Your vehicle is equipped with an intelligent
power management system to control the
distribution of electrical energy page 234.
The power management function ensures
that the battery is charged much more effi-
ciently than on vehicles without a power
management system. To maintain this func-
tion after replacing the battery, we recom-
mend that the replacement battery used is
of the same make and type as the original fit-
ted battery. To make proper use of the power
management function after the battery has
been changed, have the battery coded to
the power management mode at a special-
ised workshop.
CAUTION
Some vehicles, for example those with
the Start-Stop system* are fitted with a
special battery (AGM-type or EFB-type bat-
tery). If any other type of battery is fitted,
the Start-Stop function may be considera-
bly reduced and the vehicle may not stop
on repeated occasions.
Make sure that the vent hose is always at-
tached to the original opening on the side
of the battery. Gases or battery acid can
