loads of stuff on that here, just use the search box and you will find it.  basically get a multimeter wait 15 mins for the car to settle down, measure the drain, it should be 60-80mA, if not start pulling fuses until the drain stops.  or could be a duff battery.  battery most likely damaged by now anyway if it has been flat a few times.  or could be faulty reg on the alternator.

It's either in the FAQ section, or the Maintenance Guides... Both of which are indexed :y
