5. When charging is complete
Switch off the mains supply, unplug the charger, and disconnect the leads from the battery posts. Inspect the
liquid levels in each cell and top up. If necessary, using the correct fluid. Replace the caps. Any surplus fluid
around the cell tops should be wiped off (this should be done with extreme care as it may be acidic/corrosive).
Where appropriate, if the battery has been removed for charging, replace it and reconnect the
cables.
4- MAINTENANCE
It is essential to keep your battery regularly charged throughout the year, especially during the
winter months. In the winter the effectiveness of your car battery is reduced by the cold. Oil is thick. Engines
are difficult to start and the heater, windscreen wipers and lights are all draining power. It is at this time that
batteries have to be at peak power. If your battery is not regularly maintained and kept fully charged, it can
cause problems and a possible breakdown.
Listed are some helpful hints on how to keep your battery healthy in conjunction with your
Battery Charger.
Faulty Cells
Batteries are usually made with six cells. One of these cells can deteriorate or get damaged. If, after several
hours charging your battery is still flat, you should test the battery. Take
hydrometer readings from each cell in the battery. If one reading is lower than the others, this could indicate a
faulty cell. If necessary, get an Auto-Electrician to check your battery. One faulty cell is enough to ruin your
battery. It is pointless to continue using it and you would be better getting a new one.
Care
Sometimes the battery may appear flat, but this could simply be dirty or loose connections on your battery
terminals. It is important to maintain the leads on a regular basis. Do this by removing the leads from the
battery, clean the inside of each connector and terminal posts on the battery, smear the terminal posts and
connectors with Vaseline, refit in there correct positions and tighten firmly.
It is essential to keep the electrolyte level above the plates.
Note, however, that you should not overfill it, as the electrolyte is strongly acidic. When topping up do not use
tap water. Always use distilled or de-ionized water. It is important to keep the acid level up. If necessary have it
checked by your garage.
Checking the condition of your battery
Using a hydrometer, which can be purchased, from most motor accessory stores, you can check the specific
gravity of the electrolyte in each cell. The hydrometer is use to suck up a quantity of fluid from the cell. The
weighted float inside the hydrometer will register the condition of that cell. Put the fluid back into the cell after
testing, taking care not to splash the fluid about.
