 BATTERY
 Remove the seat and met-in box. ( 2-3)
 Remove the battery cover screw and the
 battery cover.
 Remove the battery.
 First disconnect the battery negative (-) cable
 and then the positive (+) cable.
 When disconnecting the battery positive
   (+) cable, do not touch the frame with
   tool; otherwise it will cause short circuit
   and sparks to fire the fuel.
 The installation sequence is the reverse of
 removal.
 First connect the positive (+) cable and then
    negative (-) cable to avoid short circuit.
 BATTERY VOLTAGE INSPECTION
 (OPEN CIRCUIT VOLTAGE)
 Disconnect the battery cables.
 Measure the voltage between the battery
 terminals.
 Fully charged : 13.2V
 Undercharged : 12.3V max.
 Battery charging inspection must be
    performed with a voltmeter.
 CHARGING
 Connect the charger positive (+) cable to the
 battery positive (+) terminal.
 Connect the charger negative (-) cable to the
 battery negative (-) terminal.
 · Keep flames and sparks away from a
     charging battery.
   · Turn power ON/OFF at the charger, not
     at the battery terminals to prevent
     sparks near the battery.
   · Charge the battery according to the
     current specified on the battery.
   · During quick charging, the battery
     temperature should not exceed 45.
 · Quick charging should only be done in
      an emergency.
    · Measure the voltage 60 minutes after
      the battery is charged.
