Ordinary tap water contains minerals
harmful to a battery, and should not be
used for topping up.
1. Check the electrolyte level at least once
a month. Fill to the manufacturer’s rec-
ommended level when necessary. Top
up only with distilled water (or pure de-
ionized water suitable to use in batter-
ies).
2. Always keep the battery in a good state
of charge. Installing a voltmeter will help
you monitor your battery. If you will not
use the boat for a month or more, re-
move the battery from the boat and store
it in a cool, dark place. Completely re-
charge the battery before using it.
3. If the battery will be stored for longer
than a month, check the specific gravity
of the fluid at least once a month and re-
charge the battery when it is low.
NOTE:
Consult a Yamaha dealer when charging or
re-charging batteries.
