Battery Maintenance
The lithium-ion battery is a sealed
battery.
To help maintain the lithium-ion battery,
do the following:
▼
Disconnect the battery cables, -
negative (black lead) first, if the
motorcycle is in storage or used
infrequently.
Or use the
recommended lithium-ion battery
charger to maintain the battery.
▼ If the battery is left for a period of
time, check the voltage. If it is lower
than 12.4 Volts, recharge the battery
as described on page
157.
▼ Clean the battery using a clean, dry
cloth.
▼ Make sure the battery terminals are
clean and securely fastened.
▼ Regularly check the battery
terminals for any residue. Make sure
they are clean and free from
moisture as this will ensure that the
transfer of energy from the battery
is consistent.
Battery Storage
To store a lithium-ion battery correctly,
do the following:
▼
Always store the battery at
approximately 100% state of charge.

of time, so it does not fully discharge.
▼
Always store the battery in a clean,
dry and ventilated area.
▼
Always store the battery away from
heat and fire.
▼
Never allow the battery to come into
contact
with any corrosive
