for more than one month, remove
the battery, fully charge it, and then
place it in a cool, dry place.

battery, be sure the key is
turned to “OFF”, then discon-
nect the negative lead before
disconnecting the positive lead.
[ECA16302]
2.
If the battery will be stored for more
than two months, check the specif-
ic gravity of the electrolyte at least
once a month and fully charge the
battery whenever necessary.
3.
Fully charge the battery before in-
stallation.
4. After installation, make sure that
the battery leads are properly con-
nected to the battery terminals and
that the breather hose is properly
routed, in good condition, and not
obstructed.
NOTICE:
If
the
breather hose is positioned in
such a way that the frame is ex-
posed to electrolyte or gas ex-
pelled from the battery, the
frame could suffer structural
and external damages.
