Battery, Removing And Installing: Installing: Notes

Install in the reverse order of removal while paying attention to the following:

CAUTION:

If the battery is not secured properly, the following risks can occur:

  • Shortened service life due to vibration damage (explosion hazard).
  • If the battery is not secured properly, the plates within the battery can be damaged.
  • Damage to the battery housing caused by bracket (possible electrolyte leakage, high subsequent costs).
  • Inadequate crash safety.

Only maintenance-free batteries conforming to standards "TL82506" (from December 1997) and "VW75073" (from August 2001) may be installed.

Batteries from the replacement parts program have a base strip adapter for adapting to different clamping strips. Information on whether and how to use the base strip adapter. Refer to the Battery Owner's Manual.
