CHARGING BATTERIES
(See figure 3)
1. Insert the Charging Plug into the Charging Socket located on the front of the GRAY
COVER, at the center.
2. Plug the power cord of the charger into a wall outlet.
3. When charging is completed and you are ready to go - unplug the charger from the
wall outlet and remove the charger plug from the SPORTSTER.
4. In ideal storage conditions, batteries which were charged to full capacity and were
not used should be recharged every 6 months.
5. If you are planning not to use your SPORTSTER for an extended period of time, we
recommend charging it for two days and then disconnecting the batteries.
6. If you have not used your SPORTSTER for an extended period of time, charge the
batteries for at least 24 hours before driving.
•
Note: There is NO need to disconnect the Charging Plug promptly after the
charging is complete.
•
However, DO NOT leave the Charger connected to the batteries FOR MORE
THAN TWO WEEKS.
•
As long as the Charging Plug is in the Charger Socket, the electronic control of
the SPORTSTER automatically cuts all power to the motor and the
SPORTSTER cannot be driven.
