15.4.2. Check of system of charging of the rechargeable battery

Cars are completed with the unattended rechargeable battery which does not demand other service, except support of the case and plugs in purity. For cleaning of plugs disconnect them from the rechargeable battery and smooth out a wire brush. Strongly corroded plugs have to be processed by solution of the bicarbonate of soda applied with a toothbrush. At the same time it is impossible to allow hits of solution in the rechargeable battery. Before connection of clips of the rechargeable battery grease plugs with vaseline or an anticorrosive compound. For check of a condition of the rechargeable battery each 3 months you carry out an inspection of density of electrolyte. The dispersion of density about 0,04 g/cm3 or more between any banks indicates loss of electrolyte or deterioration in a condition of plates of the rechargeable battery. In this case charge the rechargeable battery before alignment of density in all banks. Otherwise the rechargeable battery is subject to replacement. Periodically check that plates of the rechargeable battery in each can were covered from above with electrolyte about 6 mm thick.
