AGM LOW MAINTENANCE BATTERY
TESTING
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.
If the tester indicates a test result other than “Good
Battery,” follow the steps below before replacing the
battery:
1. Connect battery to the recommended battery charger.
If charging sequence begins as normal, fully charge
battery and proceed to step 3.
The time listed on the PU-50296 battery tester
printout is an estimate. The recommended automatic
charger will indicate when the battery is fully charged
on its display.
2. If charging sequence does not initialize, refer to AGM
Battery Charging - Deeply Discharged (Below 3 Volts)
page 10.37 to attempt to restore the deeply
discharged battery. If charging sequence will not
finish as intended, the battery needs to be replaced.
3. Re-test battery. If the test results show that battery
failed, proceed with battery replacement.

MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT
NEVER add electrolyte or distilled water to the battery.
Doing so will damage the case and shorten the life of
the battery.
If you do not drive the vehicle for more than TWO weeks,
maintain the Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) battery with the
BatteryMINDer® 2012 AGM - 2 AMP charger.

If you plan to store the vehicle for ONE month or longer,
remove the battery from the vehicle and store the battery
in a cool / dry location. Continue to maintain the battery
with the BatteryMINDer® 2012 AGM - 2 AMP charger
and inspect the battery every 60 days.
BATTERY TESTING
BATTERY CONDUCTANCE ANALYZER
Conductance describes the ability of a battery to conduct
current. A conductance tester functions by sending a low
frequency AC signal through the battery and capturing a
portion of the current response to calculate conductance.
Conductance testing is more accurate than voltage,
specific gravity, or load testing.
Authorized Polaris dealers / distributors are required to
use the conductance analyzer when testing 12V Polaris
batteries.
