Warning! Battery acid is highly caustic. Protect your eyes, face, hands, clothing and the paintwork.


Checking battery acid level



Remove left, right and centre covers.

Check the battery fluid level.

The battery fluid level must be between maximum "UPPER LEVEL" and minimum "LOWER LEVEL".

Adding distilled water



Open the battery caps.

Caution!
Use only distilled water to top up the acid level in the battery. Never top up with diluted sulphuric acid.

Top up with distilled water until the fluid level reaches the "UPPER LEVEL" mark.

Replace the battery caps securely.

Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure.
