Charging the batter
WARNING
Never charge a battery still installed in the
vehicle unless a battery charger unit approved
by Mercedes-Benz is being used. Gases may
escape during charging and cause explosions
that may result in paint damage, corrosion or
personal injury.
A battery charger unit specially adapted for
Mercedes-Benz vehicles and tested and
approved by Mercedes-Benz is available as an
accessory. It permits the charging of the
battery in its installed position. Contact an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center
for further information and availability.
Charge the battery in accordance with the
separate instructions for the battery charger.
WARNING
There is a risk of acid burns during the
charging process due to the gases which
escape from the battery. Do not lean over the
battery during the charging process.
WARNING
Battery acid is caustic. Avoid contact with the
skin, eyes or clothing.
Only charge the installed battery with a
battery charger which has been tested and
approved by Mercedes-Benz. These battery
chargers allow the battery to be charged
while still installed.
Only use battery chargers with a
maximum charging voltage of 14.8 V.
Only charge the battery using the jumpstarting
connection point.
The jump-starting connection point is in the engine compartment.
► Open the hood.
► Connect the battery charger to the
positive
terminal and earth point in the same order
as when connecting the donor battery in
the jump-starting procedure.
► Read the battery charger's operating
instructions before charging the battery.
