Replenishing Battery Fluid (Conventional Battery)
A poorly maintained battery will deteriorate
rapidly. Check the battery fluid level often.
The fluid level should be kept between the
upper and lower level marks (1).
To refill use only distilled water. Tap water
contains minerals that are harmful to a battery.
Battery Removal
1. Remove the seat to access
the battery.
2. Remove the battery vent
tube from the battery.
3. Disconnect the black
(negative) battery cable first.
4. Disconnect the red (positive)
battery cable next.
5. Lift the battery out of the
vehicle, being careful not to
tip it sideways and spill any
electrolyte.

Improperly connecting or disconnecting battery cables can result
in an explosion and cause serious injury or death. When removing
the battery, always disconnect the negative (black) cable first.
When reinstalling the battery, always connect the negative (black)
cable last.
WARNING
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.
