Battery Care
Follow these suggestions to maintain your battery’s optimal performance. If you do not
follow these suggestions, your battery may lose its ability to maintain a charge and might
have to be replaced sooner than would otherwise be necessary.
• Charge it: Charge your battery immediately after riding it.
• Full Charge: Do not allow the battery to run down completely and lie in storage
without a charge. This signifi cantly reduces the battery’s lifespan and may cause
damage.
• Keep it Charged: When being stored, charge the battery occasionally to make sure
its power supply does not run down. Charging it once every 21 days should be
suffi cient.
• Storage Conditions: Store the battery on a fl at, cool, dry surface. Do not allow the
battery temperature to drop below 10 degrees Celsius for extended periods of
time.
Warning
DO NOT
place your Lead-Acid battery on concrete. Concrete drains the battery’s power
and will neutralize the lead-acid. Placing the battery on concrete for any length of time will
likely result in the battery being drained of power and possibly losing its ability to store
electricity.
