Overview
Battery is an integral part of the vehicle. There are two types of batteries, i.e., conventional lead-acid battery, EG
and maintenance-free battery. Battery is a device which converts chemical energy into electric energy. It is
intended to provide power supply for the engine. When starting the vehicle, the battery will discharge to
TR
power the starter, and that will drive the flywheel, which making the crankshaft rotate, so that to start the
vehicle. When the engine cannot generate enough power or is off, the battery will provide power supply for
the internal electrical appliances, such as audio system and illumination system. When the engine begins to AX
provide power properly, the battery will collect and store the energy for common use later.
