7.2. Battery
The battery is in the left part of a motor compartment.
Check
| PERFORMANCE ORDER |
| Standard batteries |
| 1. At a small run of the car electrolyte density is recommended to check each 3 months. |
| 2. At suspicion on malfunction of the battery compare electrolyte density in cells which has to differ no more than on 0,04. Otherwise plates are damaged, or there is an electrolyte leak. |
| 3. If density differs in the specified limits, and the battery is discharged, then it should be loaded. |
| Unattended batteries |
| 4. The condition of the battery is determined by the voltmeter or by the indicator. |
| 5. The condition of the battery is determined by coloring of the indicator which depends on battery type (consult upon purchase). |
| 6. When checking tension the voltmeter there have to pass not less than 6 hours after the last trip. Otherwise turn on before check driving beam of headlights on 30 pages. |
| 7. The battery is completely discharged if tension is lower than 12,2 Century. |
| 8. Remove the discharged battery and load. |
|
Charging
| PERFORMANCE ORDER |
| Standard batteries |
| 1. The battery is charged with the current equal 0,1 from capacity until density of electrolyte does not cease to change within not less than 4 hours. |
| 2. The battery can also be charged with small current 1,5 A, having left for the night. |
| 3. The forced charging is not recommended. |
| 4. Electrolyte temperature at charging should not be above 38 °C. |
| Unattended batteries |
| 5. Batteries of this type demand long charging (up to three days depending on category degree). |
| 6. Partially discharged battery can be charged with the stabilized source with tension 13,9-14,9 B, within usually 3 hours up to the voltage of 12,5 V. |
| 7. Completely discharged battery (with tension lower than 12,2 In) is recommended to be charged in a specialized workshop as in the course of a long charge constant control is necessary. |
|
Removal
| PERFORMANCE ORDER |
|
1. Turn off nuts and disconnect plugs (arrow) from poles (the first disconnects the negative plug). |
| 2. Turn off nuts and remove a collar, unhook fastening hairpins. |
| 3. Remove the battery and a plastic tray. |
|
Installation
| PERFORMANCE ORDER |
| 1. Installation is carried out upside-down. |
| 2. At first the plug of a positive pole joins, then – negative. |
| 3. Grease battery poles with technical vaseline. |
