R8 Quattro Coupe V10-5.2L (BUJ) (2010)
‹› On batteries with visible MIN and MAX markings, electrolyte level only needs to be checked visually.
‹› The electrolyte level must be above the MIN marking, but it may only reach the MAX marking.
‹› On batteries where the outer MIN and MAX markings are difficult to see or the visibility of the electrolyte level cannot be guaranteed due to the
opaque battery housing, the sealing plugs must be removed. Then it is possible to check electrolyte level by a visual inspection of the battery
interior.
‹› The electrolyte level must meet the inner electrolyte level mark (plastic bar). This corresponds to the outer MAX mark.
‹› If electrolyte level is too low, battery loses capacity (loses performance) because the cell plates dry out. If the cell plates are not covered by
electrolyte, the plates and plate bridges start to corrode causing the function of the battery to diminish. After a while the battery does no longer
function. The battery becomes useless.
CAUTION!
Replace the battery if the electrolyte level is below the MIN marking.
