Introduction
This manual is intended for users,
technical and maintenance
personnel.
It contains the main characteristics
of the low maintenance Saft Ni-Cd
STM MR-MRE monoblocks.
It provides guidelines for use
and maintenance to obtain the
best performance and a long
useful life.
The instructions are of general
validity for batteries in Electric
Vehicles.
Nevertheless, every vehicle will
have a specific battery that has
been adapted to its own
mechanical, electrical, thermal,
and other characteristics.
Depending on the referenced
model, specific instructions might
be added to this document.
For uses other than the ones
described in this manual,

Important recommendations
!
Install the battery such as to
ensure good ventilation.
!
Never allow a flame or fire to
come near the battery.
!
The electrolyte is harmful to
the skin and particularly to
the eyes. In the event of
contact with eyes, wash
immediately with running
water and/or with a 10 %
solution of boric acid.
!
Wear base-resistant gloves
and goggles to manipulate
the electrolyte.
!
Never use sulfuric acid or
acidified water to top-up
electrolyte, as acid, even in
traces, destroys the battery.
!
Use tools with insulated handles.
!
When batteries or vehicles
equipped with STM MR-MRE
batteries are operated in
closed premises, natural or
forced ventilation is necessary.
Always respect the applicable
safety codes and regulations
of the country of operation.
