solution is guaranteed .

5 . the measuring result will not be affected by the

temperature of the cooling solution .

6 . after measuring has occurred, clean the included

pipette [10] and the refractometer thoroughly .

* In europe, Propylene is primarily used as an anti-freeze agent .

** Outside of europe, ethylene is primarily used as an

anti-freeze agent .

Measuring Process for Windscreen Washer

Fluid-Check
1 . the measuring process is identical to the one

used for the anti-freeze-check .

2 . For the windscreen washer fluid-check [c], the

measured value can be read in °c on the measu-
ring scale and indicates a guideline value, as
the composition of individual anti-freeze agents
varies .

3 . after measuring has occurred, clean the included

pipette [10] and the refractometer thoroughly .

Measuring Process for determining Battery

Acid Density
1 . Instead of the anti-freeze solution, apply a little

battery acid to the prism surface [2] by using the
pipette [10] .

2 . take readings for the acid density in g/cm

3

(kg/l) by using the light-dark-border on the
measuring scale for determining [a] “- / +“ the
battery acid density .

3 . the scale [a] is divided into three areas to deter-

mine the battery state of charge (sOc) .

recharGe = replace/recharge (<1 .20 g/cm³);

Battery state of charge (sOc)
~50%

FaIr =

acceptable
(1 .20 to 1 .25 g/cm³); Battery
state of charge (sOc) ~75%

GOOD =

good (>1 .25 g/cm³); Battery
state of charge (sOc) ~100%
