LMF Battery
Your vehicle is equipped with a LMF battery
that its water level should be checked
and controlled using the doors on it and it
requires minimal maintenance.
- Keep the battery's top part clean and dry.
- Keep battery poles and connections,
clean, tight and covered with grease.
- If electrolyte (water and acid) is spilt and
penetrates, wash the spot with a solution
of water and baking soda.
* If installed in your vehicle
** If LMF battery is installed in your vehicle
120
MF & SEALED battery*
Your vehicle is equipped with a battery
that does not need any special care.
If battery voltage is low:
Warning
- Do not bring sparks or flames near the
battery, since the hydrogen inside the
battery is flammable.
- Never keep old batteries at home. Give them
to organizations responsible for the collection
and recycling of these types of batteries.
- If the battery's voltage is less than 10.5
volts, the battery should be changed.
- If the battery's voltage is between 10.5 to
12.4 volts, it needs recharging.
- In case of the vehicle being kept turned
off, do not keep its electrical outfits on for a
long time, to increase battery life.
1- Inspection of the dynamo belt and its
decomposition, in this case the alternator
current falls.
2- Problem in the wiring system, the spark
wire has to be tight and cable diameter
has to be adequate.
3- In -18ºC do not continue the starting
process more than required.
4- In case the decision has been taken to
change the battery, it is more suitable to
replace with a battery similar in size and
amperage.
Battery's Common Problems(SSR):
- Decrease of the electrolyte covering 50%
of problems and it is the result of heat and
overcharge.**
- Keeping the lights on causing a deep
discharge.
- Non conformity of the replacement
battery with the original.
- Low charge or lose dynamo belt.
- Additional vibration due to unfastened
battery clamp.
- Loose Battery Cables**
- Use of un distilled water.**
- Corrosion**
- Freezing
- Battery decomposition for acid usage,
instead of distilled water.
