Battery recharging

By battery charger
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
• If the battery becomes discharged in a
short time (because, for example, the
headlights or interior lights were left
on while the vehicle was not in use),
recharge it by slow charging (trickle)
for 10 hours.
• If the battery gradually discharges
because of high electric load while the
vehicle is being used, recharge it at
20-30A for two hours.
WARNING

recharging your vehicle's battery to
avoid the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH from explosions or acid burns:
