- If your car has Start-Stop, the PB-44.0B is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
- The PB-44.0B delivers 440 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.
- Capacity of the PB-44.0B: 44 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.
- Polarity of the PB-44.0B: positive terminal on the right (if yours has it on the other side, the cables will not reach).
- Length, width and height of the PB-44.0B: 207 × 175 × 175 mm (European case size LB1).
