Practical tips
When a light bulb is changed, you need on-
ly switch off the light.
Deactivate the anti-theft alarm by un-
locking the vehicle before you disconnect
the battery! The alarm will otherwise be
triggered.
When disconnecting the battery from the
vehicle on-board network, disconnect first
the negative cable and then the positive
cable.
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.
Never charge a frozen battery, or one
which has thawed. This could result in ex-
plosions and chemical burns. Always re-
place a battery which has frozen. A flat bat-
tery can also freeze at temperatures close
to 0°C (+32°F).
Ensure that the vent hose is always con-
nected to the battery.
Never use a defective battery. This could
cause an explosion. Replace a damaged
battery immediately.
WARNING
The 12 volt battery is a subject to wear. A
reduction in battery power can mean that
some important safety systems, such as
power steering, braking intervention, lights
or airbag systems, operate with limitations
or stop working entirely. This may cause se-
rious accidents and injuries. To avoid this, it
is necessary to take the following safety
measure:
Get a professional service centre to re-
place the 12-volt vehicle battery every four
years.
CAUTION
Do not expose the battery to direct sun-
light over a long period of time, as the in-
tense ultraviolet radiation can damage the
battery housing.
If the vehicle is left standing in cold con-
ditions for a long period, protect the bat-
tery from “freezing”. If it freezes it will be
damaged.
Control lamp
It lights up red
Alternator fault.
The control lamp lights up when the ignition
is switched on. It should go out when the en-
gine has started running.
If the control lamp lights up while driving,
the alternator is no longer charging the bat-
tery. You should immediately drive to the
nearest specialised workshop.
You should avoid using electrical equipment
that is not absolutely necessary because this
will drain the battery.
Checking the battery electrolyte
level
Fig. 203 Sight glass on the top of the 12
volt battery (schematic representation).
The electrolyte level should be checked reg-
ularly in high-mileage vehicles, in hot coun-
tries and in older batteries.
Open the bonnet and then lift the cover
that protects the front part of the battery
in Working in the engine compart-
ment on page 289.
Check the colour display in the "magic eye"
on the top of the battery.
If there are air bubbles in the window, tap
the window gently until they disperse.
