SLOW charging
While the battery is charging, check that the internal battery temperature never exceeds 45°C.
If the temperature exceeds 45°C, interrupt charging and wait a few hours before completing.
At the end of the recharge cycle, battery voltage must be at least 14.4 V - 14.8 V.
If this voltage is NOT reached (even if the battery was charged at constant current), this indicates a
general deterioration in the state of the battery. In this case, replacing the battery is recommended
even if the vehicle will start.
Charge at a constant voltage of 14.4 V to 14.8 V, at ambient temperature and with limited initial charge
current.
For L3 12V 70Ah 760A EN batteries, the maximum initial charge current must be between 7 A and 14 A.
Charge cycle duration: min. 12 hours, max. 24 hours.
DEEP charging
While the battery is charging, check that the internal battery temperature never exceeds 45°C.
If the temperature exceeds 45°C, interrupt charging and wait a few hours before completing.
At the end of the recharge cycle, battery voltage must be at least 14.4 V - 14.8 V.
If this voltage is NOT reached (even if the battery was charged at constant current), this indicates a
general deterioration in the state of the battery. In this case, replacing the battery is recommended
even if the vehicle will start.
Prolonged periods with the battery not in use (more than 2 weeks with the battery connected) may
cause faults at the next recharge cycle.
If the battery is charged in these high internal resistance conditions, the voltage may quickly reach the
value of 14.4 - 14.8 V specified previously, but the current in the battery may drop rapidly and the
battery may fail to maintain charge for the correct period.
If the battery voltage is below 9 - 10 V, charge without voltage limiting.
The maximum initial charge current must be between 1 A and 2 A.
Charge cycle duration: min. 12 hours, max. 24 hours.
Battery conditioner
Ferrari vehicles are equipped with a battery conditioner representing the state of the art in battery care.
Using the battery conditioner contributes to prolonging battery life.
The device is stored in a pocket in the car cover bag, which is located in the luggage compartment.
