Electrical system
- Let it stand until ambient temperature is reached again (this phase may require up to 60 minutes).
- Slightly tilt the battery to favour the removal of any air bubbles, then restore the levels using the same
electrolyte.
Within 24 hours, refill as follows:
- Connect the battery charger terminals according to the right polarity;
- Using the battery charger dwg. 020333Y and/or dwg. 020334Y, select the battery capacity;
- If the battery charger is not available, charge the battery with a constant current of 1/10 of the rated
capacity (for example for a battery with rated capacity of 9Ah, the charge current must be 0.9-1.0A), for
approx. 4-6 hours.
- Let the battery stand with open circuit for approx. 4-6 hours, then check the voltage using a normal
tester.
- If the open circuit voltage is more or equal to 12.6V, the battery charge is good. Slightly tilt the battery
to eliminate any air bubbles formed while recharging.
- Check the electrolyte level again, restore if required up to the tol reference using distilled water, tighten
the caps of the single elements and install it on the vehicle.
- If lower voltages are detected, recharge the battery for 4-6 hours more as described above.
N.B.
BATTERIES STORED FOR A LONG TIME CAN REQUIRE LONGER TIMES. BATTERY CHARGERS
DWG. 020333Y AND DWG. 020334Y HAVE AN AUTOMATIC PROTECTION THAT STOPS THE
RECHARGE AFTER 12 HOURS TO PREVENT OVERHEATING THE BATTERY. IN THIS CASE, THE
TURNING ON OF THE GREEN LED DOES NOT INDICATE THE END OF THE CHARGE BUT THE
START OF THE SAFETY SYSTEM.
N.B.
THIS IS THE LAST TIME THAT ELECTROLYTE CAN BE ADDED. FUTURE TOP UPS MUST BE
MADE USING ONLY DISTILLED WATER
N.B.
WITH BATTERY CHARGER DWG. 020334Y YOU CAN CHECK THE BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL
BY THE FUNCTION CHECK. THE VALUE SHOWN ON THE DISPLAY MUST BE HIGHER THAN
THAT INDICATED IN THE TABLE; IF NOT, RECHARGE AS DESCRIBED ABOVE.
