Practical hints
Battery
The battery is located on the right hand
side of the trunk under the luggage box
Warning!
G
! Depending on vehicle production date, the
battery is a Valve-Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA)
battery, also referred to as “fleece” battery:
Such batteries do not require topping-up of the
electrolyte level. VRLA batteries therefore do not
have cell caps and the battery cover is non-re-
movable. Do not attempt to open the battery as
otherwise the battery will be damaged.
(
୴ page 433).
Failure to follow these instructions can re-
sult in severe injury or death.
Observe all safety instructions and precau-
tions when handling automotive batteries
(
୴ page 331).
Even though VRLA batteries do not require top-
ping-up of the electrolyte level and cannot be
opened to check the electrolyte level, the bat-
tery condition must be checked periodically by
performing a battery conductance test. Refer to
Maintenance Booklet for battery condition test-
ing intervals.
Never lean over batteries while connecting,
you might get injured.
Battery fluid contains sulfuric acid. Do not
allow this fluid to come in contact with eyes,
skin or clothing. In case it does, immediately
flush affected area with water and seek
medical help if necessary.
Vehicles with spare wheel
The factory-equipped VRLA battery is
leak-proofed. Only use a battery as replacement
that has the same security features and is of
identical size, voltage, and capacity as the
factory-equipped battery.
