Battery Removal

1. Remove the seat.

2. Disconnect the black (negative) battery cable first.

3. Disconnect the red (positive) battery cable last.

4. Disconnect the battery hold-down strap.

5. On conventional batteries, remove the battery vent tube.

6. Lift the battery out of the vehicle. Be careful not to tip a conven-

tional battery sideways, which could spill electrolyte.

NOTICE: If electrolyte spills, immediately wash it off with a solution of one

tablespoon baking soda and one cup water to prevent damage to the
vehicle.
