Mercedes-Benz Zetros 2020 Operating Instructions Manual page 169

Rinse acid splashes immediately
with clean water. If necessary, con-
sult a doctor.
Wear protective eyewear.
Keep out of the reach of children.
Observe these Operating Instruc-
tions.
For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you only use batteries that have
been tested and approved for your vehicle by
Mercedes-Benz. These batteries have an
increased discharge protection so that occu-
pants are not burned by acid in the event of a
battery being damaged in an accident.
In order for the battery to achieve the maxi-
mum possible service life, it must always be
sufficiently charged.
The vehicle battery, like other batteries, can
discharge over time if you do not use the vehi-
cle. In such cases, have the battery removed
at a qualified specialist workshop. You can
also charge the battery with a charger recom-
mended by Mercedes-Benz. For more informa-
tion, please contact a qualified specialist work-
shop.
Have the battery charge checked more fre-
quently if you use the vehicle mainly for short
trips or if you leave it standing idle for a
lengthy period. Consult a qualified specialist
workshop if you wish to leave your vehicle
parked up for a long period of time.
If one of the two batteries is faulty, both bat-
teries should be replaced. This is the only way
to ensure that the batteries can provide the
required capacities.
