What it means that the PB-60.1 is lead-acid

The PB-60.1 is a conventional lead-acid battery, with plates immersed in liquid electrolyte. Avoid leaving them discharged, as they sulphate, and charge them with a charger that cuts off or switches to maintenance when finished.

Before ordering the PB-60.1, check this

  • If your car has Start-Stop, the PB-60.1 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
  • Cold cranking: 540 A (EN), equal to or higher than the original.
  • Your current battery should say about 60 Ah; a little more is also fine.
  • Polarity of the PB-60.1: positive terminal on the left (if yours has it on the other side, the cables will not reach).
  • The PB-60.1 needs 242 × 175 × 190 mm of space (European case size L2): measure it with the hold-down clamp in place.
