- Varta LA70: 4 Ah less, 80 A more cranking power, the same L3 case, AGM technology.

## Lead-acid technology in the LFS74

The LFS74 is a conventional lead-acid battery, with plates immersed in liquid electrolyte. In cars without energy management, the LFS74 needs no special registration: just connect it.

## What to look at before buying the LFS74

- Measure the space: the LFS74 takes up 278 × 175 × 190 mm (European case size L3).
- With the terminals facing you, the positive terminal of the LFS74 is on the right.
- Your current battery should say about 74 Ah; a little more is also fine.
- Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 680 A or less, the LFS74 covers your engine.
