can I fill the battery with water ?

Hi there,
got the original 12V landrover battery (90AH) 825 amps ,got no clue how to open it or if i can even fill it up with sterilized water.I cant see how to open it.There is some little plastic elbow sticking out,do not know where this is for either??
I got it in a RRS 2005 SE.
any help would be greatly apreciated,thanks in advance

I thought they were maintenance free these days Confused

Why do you want to fill it or are you just wondering if you should?

These are sealed units. So no. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.

Possibly a breather tube that should vent the battery.
