1. BATTERY SPECIFICATION For 1.2L NG TC (Petrol) MT/AMT Engine: 12V, DIN52R EFB For 1.2L NG TC (Petrol) DCT Engine: 12V, 60D23R EFB For 1.2L NG TC Non SAC 0A (Petrol) MT Engine (Non IAC Non ESS): 12V, DIN40 For 1.5L CRAIL (Diesel) Engine: 12V, 60D23R EFB BATTERY CHECKING Using Hydrometer: A hydrometer is a float-type device used to determine the State-of-Charge by measuring the specific gravity of the electrolyte in each cell. It is an accurate way of determining a battery’s Stateof-Charge and weak or dead cells. Visual Inspection: Visually inspect for such as a loose or broken alternator belt, low electrolyte levels, dirty or wet battery top, corroded or swollen cables, corroded terminals or battery posts, loose hold-down clamps, loose cable terminals, or a leaking or damaged battery case. If the electrolyte levels are low in non-sealed batteries, allow the battery to cool and add only distilled water to the level indicated by the battery manufacturer. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE Tighten loose hold-down clamps and battery • terminals. Check the battery terminals for corrosion (a • white or yellowish powder). To remove it, cover the terminals with a solution of baking soda. It will bubble up and turn brown. When this stops wash it off with plain water. Dry off the battery with a cloth or paper towel. Coat the terminal with petroleum jelly to prevent • future corrosion. Use a proper wrench to loosen and remove • cables from the terminals. Always disconnect the negative (-ve) cable first • and reconnect it last. Clean the battery terminals with a terminal • cleaning tool or wire brush. Reconnect and tighten the cables, coat the terminals with petroleum jelly. Ensure that battery securely mounted. • If you need to connect the battery to a charger, • disconnect both cables to prevent damage to the vehicle’s electrical system. Clean the battery top and alternator. • Check the alternator belt for cracks and • retention, if slipping. Check the battery cables for corrosion or • swelling and replace if necessary with equal or larger diameter wire size. ELECLTRICAL 1
