2.14. Accumulator charging

GENERAL INFORMATION

In ordinary use the accumulator does not demand recharge from external sources. Only at long idle time the accumulator demands recharge each 6 weeks.

Recharge can be also required when using the car mainly on short trips to night-time. Otherwise need of recharge of the accumulator speaks about malfunction of the accumulator or in a chain of its charging. At accumulator charging electrolyte temperature in the accumulator should not exceed 38 °C. If the accumulator becomes hot or vigorous gas emission in electrolyte went, then charging has to be stopped. Charging has to be made by the direct current equal 1/20 from accumulator capacity. Intensive release of gases from the accumulator and the fact that density of electrolyte does not change in the last 3 hours of charging demonstrates to the termination of charging.
