NOTICE OF BATTERY USAGE
1. ACTIVATION OF NEW BATTERY
1.1 Addition electrolyte
1.1.1 Check the appearance of the battery and make sure
there are no scratches and cracks, the terminals should
not be slanting or deformed.
1.1.2 Take off the sealed rubber cap of the air outlet, take
off the vent plug.
1.1.3 Take out the special battery electrolyte provided with
the battery, cut off the electrolyte container cap, put a
plastic tube to fill electrolyte slowly, till the liquid level
reached the upper level, put it aside for 20 minutes after
adding electrolyte. If the liquid level drops, replenish till
the upper level.
Note: Please do not exceed the upper
level mark.
1.1.4 Thirty minutes after adding electrolyte, the engine
can be started.
If conditions permit, recharge for 3–
5 hours before riding, which will further improve startup
performance and extend the battery life. In winter when
the temperature is low or after long periods of storage, the
battery should be recharged for 3–5 hours before using.
1.1.5 Close the filling hole plug tightly, rinse away any
electrolyte outside the battery with clean water, use cloth
to wipe it clean.
1.2 Installation
1.2.1 Put the air outlet onto the nozzle,
make sure
that the pipe is not distorted or crushed
, otherwise
the battery might explode.
If any electrolyte is spilt
out, corrosion may occur to both your clothes and the
motorcycle.
1.2.2 First connect the positive “+” terminal (red wire), then
connect negative “-” terminal,
Note: please note that
reversing the wires
can damage the electric components
such as the igniter device and the rectifier.
1.2.3 After tightening the bolt, apply grease or jelly on
the bolt, nut and terminal, so as to avoid poor connection
caused by rust.
2. USAGE AND MAINTENANCE
2.1 Each time’s startup should not exceed 5 seconds. If
startup fails after several attempts, the rider should check
the oil supply system and the startup and ignition system.
2.2. The following conditions will lead to excessive battery
discharge or insufficient recharging, which will shorten its
service life.
•
Frequent startup, short riding distance;
•
Low speed riding for a long period;
•
Grip brake lever or step on the rear brake pedal during
riding causing the brake indicator to constantly lit up;
•
Installation of electric accessories or an electric light.
2.3 When starting the engine difficult, lights are dim, or
the horn does not sound resonantly, please recharge
immediately.
2.4 Check the electrolyte level at an interval of 1–3
months, if the electrolyte level is below the lower level,
replenish with distilled water or putrefied water to raise
