Battery -A-, REMOVING AND INSTALLING, 0K4 AND VH0: Installing

TIP:

Batteries from the Audi Parts Program have a base strip adapter for conforming to different clamping strips. See the battery operating instructions for information on when and how to use the base strip adapter.

-- Move the battery to the stop on the retaining bracket -1- and on the retaining bracket -2- (if equipped) -arrows-, so that the battery clamping strip engages in the retaining bracket. (The retaining bracket is installed on the left or right depending on the version).
