Topping up with distilled water
Topping up with distilled water
  Note!
   
t  The bottle -VAS 5045- is the ideal tool for topping up battery electrolyte. The shape of the bottle's mouth prevents overfilling of the battery elements or the spillage of electrolyte. Thanks to the design of the -VAS 5045-, when the maximum filling level is reached the passage of distilled water into the battery is cut off.
t  To avoid impurities in the electrolyte that could cause the battery to discharge, only distilled water should be used.
–  A low level of electrolyte should be corrected as follows:
–  Unscrew the caps.
–  Only the filling bottle -VAS 5045- may be used to top up electrolyte levels. Only distilled water may be added to the max mark.
  Note!
After topping up it will be necessary to check the electrolyte density → Chapter.
