Battery Care
Follow these suggestions to maintain your battery’s optimal performance. If you do not
follow these suggestions, your battery may lose its ability to maintain a charge and might
have to be replaced sooner than would otherwise be necessary.
• Charge it: Charge your battery immediately after riding it.
• Full Charge: Do not allow the battery to run down completely and lie in storage
without a charge. This signifi cantly reduces the battery’s lifespan and may cause
damage.
• Keep it Charged: When being stored, charge the battery occasionally to make sure
its power supply does not run down. Charging it once every 3 weeks should be
suffi cient.
• Storage Conditions: Store the battery on a fl at, cool, dry surface. Do not allow the
battery temperature to drop below 10 degrees Celsius (50 degrees Farenheit) for
extended periods of time.
