Battery
The battery is mounted under the seat (removing the seat, see page 15)
The battery has a closed system and therefore requires no maintenance. It
is not necessary to check the electrolyte level or to refill water. Simply keep
the battery poles clean and slightly grease them with an acid-free grease if
necessary.
Removing the battery:
– First disconnect the negative and then the positive pole of the battery.
– Remove screws
1 and swing retaining bracket and voltage regulator
out of the way.
– Remove battery.
– When replacing, connect first the positive and then the negative pole.

BATTERY STORAGE:
When preparing the motorcycle for a longer period of standstill, remove
the battery and recharge it. Storage temperature: 0 - 35°C. Do not expose
to direct sun radiation.
Charging the battery
Remove the battery and check the charging level. Use a voltmeter to mea-
sure the voltage between the battery poles (off-load voltage).
Accurate results can only be obtained if the battery has neither been char-
ged nor discharged during a period of 30 minutes preceding the measuring.
If the battery is empty, it can be recharged for a maximum period of 10
hours at 0.3 A and a maximum of 14.4 V.
