11.2 Battery. Inspection and maintenance
Depending on the model, the battery is in a plastic box on the
deck of the tow in the middle on the left side of the direction of
travel, or is attached with a bracket at the same place
�
To check the battery, remove the cover of SNOWDOG.
To check the battery a voltmeter or a multimeter will be needed.
Measure the voltage on the battery when the engine is stopped
and all power users are turned off (headlights, heated grips etc.).
A fault-free battery should show at least 12.4 volts. If the battery
voltage is less, it should be recharged.
To check the battery capacity a discharge tester should be used.
If you cannot use a discharge tester, contact the battery service
center�
Enabling users for a long time in the idling rpm mode can lead
to battery discharge.
When you turn off the engine, power users may remain turned
on. Therefore, after the engine is off, check all power users.
The users, which are on, will discharge the battery and make it
impossible to start with the electric starter.
Storage of SNOWDOG with the discharged battery will lead to the
battery’s going out of order. A fault-free battery has a voltage of
at least 12.4 volts. At the end of a journey, it is always necessary
to disconnect all energy users, disable the start system, heating
the steering grips and headlight.
