Check of level of acid in the accumulator

Liquid in the accumulator consists of the sulfuric acid diluted with the distilled water. The part of this water can evaporate or break up to hydrogen and oxygen during a battery charging.

The so-called accumulator which is not subject to maintenance which at the expense of the bigger volume of liquid has to, under normal circumstances is installed in Audi, throughout all term of the service to do without addition of the distilled water.

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. Liquid in the accumulator has to reach, at least, lower of two marks put with a varnish on the case or strips which are beaten out on it, and it is good to cover the upper edge of plates.
  2. If the level of liquid fell, unscrew a stopper.
  3. If the accumulator is charged normally, add the distilled water to the top mark or is 15 mm higher than the upper edge of plates.
  4. If the accumulator was strongly discharged, add so much water, how many it is necessary to cover plates. At charging liquid level considerably rises.
  5. Add the distilled water to the top mark only after a battery charging.
  6. The amount of the added water has to be well dosed, differently the accumulator will be crowded.
  7. The crowded accumulator perekipat too much, acid acts from under a stopper

Dismantle of the accumulator

Dismantle of the accumulator: remove a decontamination hose. In the beginning weaken the plug of minus (3), then remove facing of a plus pole (4) and unscrew the plug of plus (5). Now it is possible to weaken a bolt (1) on a fixing guard (2) bases of the accumulator.


 PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. In the beginning be convinced available a code for the coding device against theft of the radio receiver in order that it could be made active again after installation.
  2. In the beginning always disconnect the wire connected to minus in order that in the course of further work there was no short circuit.
  3. Weaken a nut on the plug of a minus pole, disconnect the plug.
  4. Weaken the plug of a plus pole and disconnect.
  5. Unscrew a bolt of a fixing level at the accumulator basis, take out a bolt and remove a level.
  6. Remove a plastic hose of the central decontamination.
  7. Remove the accumulator.
  8. At installation connect a wire to plus in the beginning, then the minus plug.
  9. It is possible to change wire plugs only if to make big effort as the head of a plus pole is thicker than a head of the minus.
  10. Do not forget about a hose of the central decontamination.
  11. In the presence of the radio receiver with a code against theft again enter number of a code.

Care of contacts of the accumulator

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. Wash away oxide crystals warm alkaline water or process "Noutralon" of firm Warta.
  2. Grease heads of poles of the accumulator and the plug of wires with means for protection against acid (Bosch "Ft 40 v 1").
  3. It is impossible to grease lateral faces of heads of poles and inside of plugs, differently there can be difficulties with contact.
