Nominal voltage is 12.8 Volts when fully charged. If the
voltage falls below 12.5V, charge it immediately, or the
battery runs the risk of sulfation.
To charge a Dry Shipped AGM battery, do the following:
1. Charge the battery for 1 hour using the Polaris
recommended charger.
IMPORTANT
Reference the recommended charging information on
the battery decal. Battery charger must be designed to
work with AGM batteries. Internal damage may occur if
a non-AGM compliant battery charger is used or if too
much current is applied during charging.
NOTICE
Battery voltage may reach more than 16 volts during
initial charging session.
2. Allow battery to stand for 1-2 hours before checking
voltage.
3. Check open circuit voltage. Continue charging as
needed.
Battery Open Circuit Voltage:
12.6 Volts
Test the battery using the PU-50296 battery tester. If the
test fails, fully charge the battery. If the battery is too low
to accept a charge, see AGM Battery Charging - Deeply
Discharged (Below 3 Volts) page 10.37.
