F. STARTING AND USE
Keep the following warnings in mind before starting the vehicle:
1. Each attempt to start the vehicle must not last longer than 5 seconds,
with an interval of at least 5 seconds between start attempts.
2. After five attempts, let the battery rest for at least 3 minutes to let
it cool down.
3. Leaving the vehicle lights on for a long period of time after turning
off the engine could discharge the battery excessively and make it
impossible to start again.
4. If the vehicle will not be used for more than 6 weeks, disconnect a
battery pole or leave a battery charger connected with the charge
maintainer function.
5. Vehicles with a satellite alarm consume more power and the battery
will discharge faster as a result.
6. Low temperatures have a negative impact on battery performance;
when starting below 0°C it is recommended to turn on the lights for 1-2
minutes to warm up the battery. This will return battery performance
to normal levels.
7. Do not leave the battery exposed to excessively high temperatures for
a long period, its operating life could be negatively impacted.
The lithium battery operating voltage is approx. 0.8V higher than a
normal lead-acid battery and therefore has a greater discharge capacity.
In theory, a higher voltage implies improved fuel combustion, less
consumption and quicker starts.
