Long periods of inactivity
Battery performance will be poor if the vehicle is not used for a long time. This is the
result of the natural phenomenon of battery discharging, and may be due to residual
absorption by vehicle components with constant power consumption. Poor battery
performance may also be due to environmental conditions and the cleanliness of the
poles. In order to avoid difficult starts and/or irreversible damage to the battery, follow
any of these steps:
- At least once a month start the engine and run it slightly above idle speed for 10-15
minutes. This keeps all the engine components, as well as the battery, in good working
order.
- Store the vehicle (as indicated in the «Vehicle inactivity» section in this chapter) with
the battery removed. Have the battery cleaned, charged fully and stored in a dry,
ventilated place. Recharge
at least once every two months .
CAUTION
THE BATTERY MUST BE RECHARGED WITH A CURRENT LOAD EQUAL TO 1/10
OF THE BATTERY RATED CAPACITY AND FOR A PERIOD NOT LONGER THAN
8 HOURS. TAKE THE VEHICLE TO AN AUTHORISED PIAGGIO SERVICE CEN-
TRE FOR THIS OPERATION. WHEN REFITTING THE BATTERY MAKE SURE THE
LEADS ARE CORRECTLY CONNECTED TO THE TERMINALS.
