The battery should be examined for cleanliness at regular intervals

• Read the Safety page
• Keep cell terminals and connectors free of dust and corrosion. Terminal corrosion may affect the performance of the battery and could present a safety hazard. Should corrosion be observed, disconnect the battery, unbolt and remove the connectors, and remove the corrosion by brushing the terminals and connectors with a diluted solution of baking soda and water (sodium bicarbonate). Reapply an anti-oxidizing grease before reconnecting and bolting the connectors. Always maintain proper records.

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES REMOVE PRESSURE-RELIEF VALVES AND NEVER ADD WATER.

To ensure our batteries safely reach their maximum shelf life, the average annual storage temperature should be 15°C. The short-term storage temperature must not exceed 25°C or battery life may be affected.

• READ THE SAFETY SECTION.
• Remove the battery from the vehicle.
• Find a cool, dry place to keep your battery.
• Make sure the battery is fully charged and recharge it approximately every two months.
• Cleaning any terminal corrosion may affect the performance of the battery and could present a safety hazard. Remove the corrosion by brushing the terminals and connectors with a dilute solution of baking soda and water (sodium bicarbonate). Reapply an anti-oxidizing grease before reconnecting and bolting the connectors.

Autumn: Prior to the rest period

• Charge the battery completely, switch off all electrical devices, and, if possible, disconnect the battery.
• Store in a cool, dry place.
• Store batteries fully charged
• Fully charged batteries can be stored even at temperatures well below zero – Partially charged batteries can freeze at temperatures just below zero.

Winter: Prior to the rest period

• Check the state of charge/voltage regularly
• Should the voltage drop below 12,4 V, recharge the battery

Spring/Summer: Prior to the rest period

• Check the state of charge/voltage regularly
• Should the voltage drop below 12,4 V, recharge the battery
