Maintenance Free Batteries

Most problems with batteries today are due to improper initial activation. Many people, even professionals, think it is enough just to put acid in the battery and start the engine... this is wrong!
Newly activated batteries should ALWAYS be CHARGED before you install them into the motorcycle. Otherwise they lose at least 20% of their capacity. This will definitely result in much shorter service life or other battery problems.
Guidelines:

1. Remove the foil sheet covering the filler ports. ONLY use the electrolyte container supplied together with the battery.
2. Remove the electrolyte container cap strip. You will use this later to seal the battery.
3. Place the container, sealed top of the cells down, into the filler ports of the battery.
4. Hold the container and push down to break the seals.You will see air bubbles rising. Keep the container in this position until it is completely empty.
   
5. Remove the container once empty.
6. Let the battery stand for at least 30 minutes.
7. Place the cap strip loosely over the battery filling holes.
8. Charge the battery completely: Charge for three to five hours at the current equivalent of 1/10 of its rated capacity.

After charging press down firmly with both hands to seat the cap strip.
