Checking the electrolyte level in the battery (VW Caddy 3)

Checking the electrolyte level using the marks on the housing:

• The electrolyte level is checked using the Min and Max marks on the battery case. The electrolyte level is normal if it matches the Max mark.

If the electrolyte level is below the Min mark, add distilled water.

Checking the electrolyte level in individual cans:

• Turn off the ignition and all electrical consumers.
• If there is a protective film on the battery can caps, it should be removed. In this case, the sticker with warning pictograms must remain on the battery.
• Unscrew the caps from the jars.
• Check the electrolyte level in the cans. The plastic protrusion corresponds to the maximum electrolyte level mark. The electrolyte level (1) is normal if it matches this mark. If the electrolyte level is below the plastic protrusion mark, add distilled water.

If the electrolyte level in each can is within the norm, it is necessary:

• check the plugs and sealing rings on them for damage; damaged parts must be replaced;
• screw the plugs into the holes of the jars.
