! CAUTION
Improper activation or exces-
sive overcharging (possibly by
equipment failure) could cause
damage to the battery or snow-
mobile by forcing acid out of the
safety valve.
1. Remove the battery from the
snowmobile.
NOTE: This battery is perma-
nently sealed. There is no need to
remove the caps or to add elec-
trolyte for the life of the battery.
NOTE: Do not charge the bat-
tery while it is in the snowmobile
with the battery cables connected
as damage to the electrical sys-
tem may occur.
2. Using
Arctic
Cat
C h a r g e r ( p / n 0 4 3 6 - 6 3 4 ) ,
charge the battery until the
green indicator light on the
charger illuminates.
NOTE: Once charged, the bat-
tery can be left connected to the
charger indefinitely.
3. Place the battery into position
in the snowmobile and secure.
4. Connect cables to the proper
terminals: positive cable to the
positive terminal (+) and nega-
tive to the negative terminal (-).
Connect the negative cable last.
! CAUTION
Connecting cables in reverse
(i.e. positive to negative and
negative to positive) can cause
serious damage to the electri-
cal system.

FUSES

Fuses protect the snowmobile elec-
trical system from overloading. If
electrical parts in the snowmobile
are not working, the system may
have been overloaded and caused a
blown fuse. Before repairing or
replacing any electrical part, check
the appropriate fuses. The following
illustration shows which fuse pro-
tects each electrical part on the
snowmobile. If a fuse blows (opens
a circuit), all the parts of the snow-
mobile that use that circuit will not
work.
Once which fuse to check has been
determined, perform the following
steps:
1. Open the right-side access
Battery
panel; then remove the fuse
panel cover. The fuse panel is
located behind the battery.
NOTE: There is a fuse pulling
tool along with spare fuses inside
the fuse panel.
2. Remove the suspected fuse.
