ISSUE
Recent Jaguar vehicles have been equipped, in production, with VARTA low maintenance batteries. This does not mean maintenance-free.
The electrolyte level must not fall below the "minimum" marking regardless of whether the battery is the original equipment VARTA battery, a replacement VARTA supplied via Jaguar Parts, or any other replacement battery.
ACTION
As a minimum requirement, check the electrolyte level at every routine service interval and top up if necessary. In normal climates, perform this check at least once per year, regardless of mileage. In hot climatic conditions - if the vehicle is operated in ambient temperatures exceeding 30°C (86°F) for one month or longer, check the electrolyte level at least every 3 months, regardless of mileage. Check the electrolyte level as described.
