j
Charge the battery at
a rate that is 1/10th of the
battery capacity. For example, the charging rate
for a 10 Ah battery would be 1.0 amp ere.
NOTICE
Do not use a high rate battery charger, as
is typically employed at automotive service
stations, unless the charging rate can be
reduced to the level required for this vehi-
cle’s battery. Charging the battery at a rate
higher than specified may ruin the battery.
Charging at a high rate causes excess heat
whichcanwarptheplatesandcauseinter-
nal shorting. Higher-than-normal charging
rates also cause the plates to shed active
material. Deposits will accumulate, and can
cause internal shorting. If the temperature
oftheelectrolyterisesabove4C(11F)
during charging, reduce the charging rate to
lower the temperature, and increase charg-
ing time proportionately.
After charging, check the electrolyte level in each
cell. If the leve l ha s fallen, add distilled water to
bring it back up to the upper level line.
Install the caps on the cells.
Install t
he battery (see Battery Installation).
Fuse
Fuses are arranged in
the fuse box located un-
der the seat. If the electrical systems do not func-
tion, inspect the fuse. Before replacing a fuse, check

NOTICE
Do not use a fuse of a higher capacity than
the specified fuse rating, or damage to the
electrical system could result. Refer to the
