    Advices concerning the starter battery Fischer Panda recommends normal starter battery use. If a genset is required for extreme winter conditions, then the starter battery capacity should be doubled. It is recommended that the starter battery be regularly charged by a suitable battery-charging device (i.e., at least every 2 months).
