Charging
NOTE: Arctic Cat recommends
the use of the CTEK Multi US 800 or
the CTEK Multi US 3300 for battery
maintenance charging.
1. Be sure the battery and terminals
have been cleaned with a baking soda
and water solution.
2. Be sure the charger and battery are in
a well-ventilated area and ensure the
battery charger cables will not contact
any battery acid. Be sure the charger
is unplugged from the 110-volt elec-
trical outlet.
3. Connect the red terminal lead from
the charger to the positive terminal of
the battery; then connect the black
terminal lead of the charger to the
negative terminal of the battery.
4. Plug the charger into a 110-volt elec-
trical outlet.
5. By pushing the Mode button (A) on the
left side of the charger, select the Nor-
mal Charge Icon (E). The Normal
Charge Indicator (C) should illuminate
on the upper left portion of the charger.
6. The battery will charge to 95% of its
capacity at which time the Mainte-
nance Charge Indicator (D) will illu-
minate.
NOTE: For optimal charge and per-
formance, leave the charger con-
nected to the battery for a minimum 1
hour after the Maintenance Charge
Indicator (D) illuminates. If the bat-
tery becomes hot to the touch, stop
charging. Resume after it has cooled.
7. Once the battery has reached full
charge, unplug the charger from the
110-volt electrical outlet.
NOTE: If, after charging, the bat-
tery does not perform to operator
expectations, bring the battery to
an authorized Arctic Cat dealer for
further troubleshooting.
Jump-Starting
NOTE: Arctic Cat does not recom-
mend jump-starting a vehicle with a
dead battery but rather to remove the
battery, service it, and correctly charge
it; however, in an emergency, it may be
necessary to jump-start a vehicle. If so,
use the following procedure to carefully
and safely complete this procedure.
1. On the vehicle to be jump-started,
remove the battery cover and any ter-
minal boots.
! WARNING
Improper handling or connecting of a
battery may result in serious injury
including acid burns, electrical burns,
or blindness as a result of an explosion.
Always remove rings and watches.
