Information

The battery is located under the left front seat.
In order to avoid triggering the siren in vehicles with an additional alarm siren, the battery must be disconnected while the ignition is on!
All loads must be switched off beforehand! Remove ignition key!
Never disconnect battery with engine running!
Never start engine without a securely connected battery!
The battery terminal clamps must only be attached by hand without using excessive force to prevent damage to the battery housing.
Check that the battery is seated correctly after installation. Otherwise, a loose battery presents risks such as: - Reduced service life due to vibration damage. - Possible damage to the grid plates of the battery. - Damage to the battery housing from mounting parts (possible acid leakage, with high subsequent costs). - Inadequate crash safety.
