fuse, find and solve the problem that caused it to
blow. Do not replace the fuse with any alternative
form of conductor

INSTRUCTIONS FOR REFRESHING THE STOCK CHARGE OF AN OPEN CIRCUIT
1) Voltage check
Before installing the battery on the vehicle, check the open circuit voltage with a normal tester.
- If the voltage exceeds 12.60 V, the battery may be installed without any renewal recharge.
- If voltage is below 12.60 V, a renewal recharge is required as explained in 2).
2) Constant voltage battery charge mode
-Constant voltage equal to 14.40÷14.70V
-Initial charge voltage equal to 0.3÷0.5 for nominal capacity
-Duration of the charge: 10 to 12 h recommended
Minimum 6 h
Maximum 24 h
3) Constant current battery charge mode
-Charge current equal to 1/10 of the nominal capacity of the battery
-Duration of the charge: 5 h
WARNING
-WHEN THE BATTERY IS REALLY FLAT (WELL BELOW 12.6V) IT MIGHT BE THAT 5 HOURS OF
RECHARGING ARE NOT ENOUGH TO ACHIEVE OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE.
IN THESE CONDITIONS IT IS HOWEVER ESSENTIAL NOT TO EXCEED EIGHT HOURS OF CON-
TINUOUS RECHARGING SO AS NOT TO DAMAGE THE BATTERY ITSELF.
