ATTENTION
Using water with additives
Defective batteries, loss of warranty eligibility
Top up the batteries using only distilled or desalinated
water (EN 50272-T3).
Do not use any foreign additives, so-called enhancing
agents, because this will invalidate the warranty.
1. Add distilled water one hour before the charging
process comes to an end. Observe the correct acid
level according to the battery label.
All cells must produce gas at the end of the charging
process.
2. Clean up any spilled water. To do this, proceed as
described in the Care and maintenance chapter in
the "Cleaning the batteries" section.
Battery indicator
The charging state of the batteries is shown on the con-
trol panel display.
● The length of the bar shows the battery charge
state.
