Battery

Battery Installation

Using a new battery that has not been fully charged can damage the battery
and result in a shorter life. It can also hinder vehicle performance. Follow the
battery charging instructions on page 76 before installing the battery.
1. Ensure that the battery is fully charged.

2. Place the battery in the battery holder.
3. On conventional batteries, install the battery vent tube. The vent tube

must be free of obstructions and securely installed. Route the tube away
from the frame and vehicle body to prevent contact with electrolyte.

Battery gases could accumulate in an improperly installed vent tube
and cause an explosion, resulting in serious injury or death. Always
ensure that the vent tube is free of obstructions and is securely
installed as recommended.

4. Coat the terminals with dielectric grease or petroleum jelly.

5. Connect and tighten the red (positive) cable first.

6. Connect and tighten the black (negative) cable last.

7. Verify that cables are properly routed.

8. Reinstall the driver's seat.
