INSTRUCTION BOOK.

In further connection with the difficulty that
of some customers experience in keeping their batteries
charged, the following is suggested :-

(1) On p.75. in the Section entitled "Charging
in Garage from External Source", after
the sentence "Suitable rectifying apparatus
must be used" -

We suggest adding -

"There are two or three reliable types of
rectifier on the market which are capable of
supplying to a six-cell battery a direct
current of from 2 to 6 amperes."

(2) At a suitable place, we might insert

"Where it is a frequent occurrence for
the car to be parked for long periods in
the dark, it would be advantageous to use
small consumption side lamp bulbs, i.e.
not more than 6 watt."
