When replacing a type 096 AGM battery it is important to keep to the original battery technology. If the vehicle has Start-Stop technology and is fitted with an AGM battery it MUST be replaced with an AGM battery of correct specification, the same goes for EFB batteries.

Terminal Layout: Negative (-) on left,Positive (+) on right ; with the terminals on the edge of the battery closest to you A. Many people have the impression that when batteries sit on concrete the energy leaks out, the truth is that you can let any modern battery sit on concrete without fear of harm or accelerated self discharge.More reaction surface area ensuring higher starting capacity within the same footprint as conventional ?flooded batteries.

The AGM batteries utilises the same absorbent glass mat technology as used in Yuasa Motorcycle and Industrial batteries which have been on the market for over 44 years (1965). This absorbent glass mat absorbs the batterys acid, enabling a more efficient use of the cells volume without the need for electrolyte reservoirs, as needed with conventional flooded batteries. The absorbent glass mat gives a number of key benefits to the design of the lead acid battery: Highest cold cranking amperes (CCA) enables engine starts even in extreme climates while keeping comfort and safety features functioning A. Both are recombinant batteries (i.e. under normal operating conditions they recombine the gases given off during charging to form water) and both are classified as sealed valve regulated. Functional terminal covers for added safety to prevent accidental short circuits and prolonged battery life and reliability. Yuasas world leading motorcycle and industrial AGM (absorbent glass mat) technology comes to the automotive market. The Yuasa automotive AGM battery has been engineered to meet the growing extreme power demands of recently introduced vehicles now starting to enter the European aftermarket. Yuasas automotive AGM experience comes from vehicles such as the Mazda MX5 and the famous Toyota Prius and has now been launched for European vehicle battery designs.We also offer a full range of 096 Batteries for vehicles fitted with standard ignitions and 096 EFB Batteries for vehicles fitted with emission reduction systems such as Start-Stop. AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) is one of the latest top-of-the range battery technologies. Here, the electrolyte is held completely in an absorbent mat of very thin glass fibers, allowing larger quantities of energy to pass through. In addition, the valve must safely release any excess pressure that may be produced during overcharging ?(e.g. alternator rectifier fault), otherwise the cell would be irreversibly damaged. The excessive pressure that the valve is releasing is both hydrogen and oxygen which can not recombined within the battery so breaks the cycle, ?net result is that battery would eventually dry out.
