Afterwards, wipe off any spills of elec-
trolyte and battery external surfaces
with a clean cloth, soaked in a 10 per
cent solution of ammonia or baking
soda.
Do not fill the battery above required
level: electrolyte spilling through the
vents may damage the paintwork.
Always check that the battery termi-
nals are tight and clean. Oxidized ter-
minals or poor connection may cause
sparking and thus damage vehicle
electronics. For the same reason never
disconnect the storage battery with the
engine running to check the alternator
operation.
When installing the battery, ensure
correct polarity of connections accord-
ing to the markings (positive terminal is
also bigger in size than negative).
Charging the battery on the vehicle
requires disconnection of the red lead
from the alternator. The storage battery
is connected to the alternator terminal
30 by the positive cable (terminal «+»).
We recommend you to remove the
battery from the vehicle before recharg-
ing it.

The washer fluid in container 2 (Fig.
37) should be maintained on a reason-
able level to prevent possible activation
of low level sender 3. Top up washer
fluid through the hole, normally closed
by cap 1.
Fill the fluid reservoir of the washer
system with a mixture of water and an
appropriate washer fluid in proportion
indicated on the package. Clean water
may be used in warm weather.
Adjust the windscreen washer sprin-
kler so as to make water come onto the
upper part of the wiped area. For this
purpose insert a needle into the sprin-
kler orifice and using it as a lever adjust
the sprinkler ball head.
The spark gap «A» (Fig.38) should
measure 0.7-0.8 mm (1.00-1.15 mm for
injection system). Adjust the gap by
bending the side electrode only.
To ensure reliable start-up at cold
temperatures replace the spark plugs
for the new ones, even if the currently
washer container
