Battery
Refer to
Safety Precautions
on page 25.
Your CRF has a maintenance-free type battery.
You do not have to check the battery electrolyte
level or add distilled water as you would with a
conventional-type battery.
Your battery is a maintenance-free type and can
be permanently damaged if the cap strip is
removed.
Electrical accessories use current from the
battery, even when the engine is stopping.
Limited operation also allows the battery to
discharge. If you have electrical accessories on
your CRF or do not ride frequently, we
recommended that you charge the battery
frequently (see
Battery Charging
on page 105).
If you do not expect to ride your CRF for at least
2 weeks, we recommended you remove the
battery, or at least disconnect the battery cables
(negative cable first).
If you plan to store your CRF, see
Battery
Storage
(this page)
.
If your battery seems weak and/or is leaking
electrolyte (cause slow starting or other electrical
problems), see your Honda dealer.
This symbol on the battery means
that this product must not be treated
as household waste.
An improperly disposed of battery can be harmful
to the environment and human health. Always
confirm local regulations for battery disposal.

NOTICE
Battery Storage
If you plan to store your CRF, we recommend
you remove the battery and store it where it can
be charged at least every 30 days to maintain its
service life.
If you do not remove the battery, we recommend
disconnecting the battery cables (negative cable
first).
You will get the best storage results from removing
the battery and slow (trickle) charging it every 30
days (see
Battery Charging
on page 105).
Before you remove the battery, be sure to read all
the information that follows, as well as the
information on the battery label.

The battery gives off explosive hydrogen
gas during normal operation.
A spark or flame can cause the battery to
explode with enough force to kill or

shield, or have a skilled mechanic do the
battery maintenance.
The battery is located under the seat.
