Charging the battery (fig. 78) Before charging the battery, it is recommended to remove it from the motorcycle. Remove the left-hand fairing (page 82), unscrew the screw (1) and remove the bracket (2). Always disconnect the black negative terminal (-) first, then the red positive terminal (+). Warning Keep the battery out of the reach of children. Charge the battery at 0.9 A for 5÷10 hours. E The battery produces explosive gases: keep it away from heat sources and flames. Charge the battery in a well-ventilated area. Connect the battery charger leads to the battery terminals: red to the positive terminal (+), black to the negative terminal (-). Warning Connect the battery to the charger before switching it on; failure to do so can result in sparking at the battery terminals, which could ignite the gases inside the cells. Always connect the red positive terminal (+) first. Reinstall the battery on its mount (3) and secure the bracket (2) with the screw (1). Apply some grease on the fastening screws to improve conductive capacity and connect the terminals. Important 1 3 + - 2 fig. 78 93
