switched on.
In this case, connect the battery conditioner direct to the battery.
➤ Check that the battery is in good condition.
➤ Check the following:
– The battery housing for damage
– The fluid level in the battery
If necessary refill the battery with distilled water.
– The pole contacts
Clean off any dirt present.
– Check the battery voltage with a voltmeter: It should not be below 9 V
(MBCC100) or 4.5 V (MBCC200).
If the voltage is less than 9 V (12 V batteries) or 4.5 V (6 V batteries) a cell may
be defective. In such a case, the battery is defective and may not be
recharged.
