Commissioning sealed batteries

and recharging, if necessary.
These operations should be carried out before delivering the vehicle, and on a six-month basis while
the vehicle is stored in open circuit.
Besides, upon pre-delivery it is therefore necessary to check the battery charge and recharge it, if
required, before storing the vehicle and, afterwards, every six months.
