4.2.16 Battery
The Battery is placed on the right hand engine compartment.
A sealed-type battery is installed in the HSR-BENELLI Series-S. After the enclosed electrolyte
has been filled into the battery for the first time, the sealing strip must not be removed again.
It is not necessary to check the electrolyte level of the battery or to add destillated water. The
battery is maintenance-free!
You must, however, maintain the battery charged as it is intended to be in order to maximize
its life and to make sure that it will supply enough current to start your Series-S. When used
regularly, the charging system helps to maintain the full charge of the battery. However, if your
Series-S is only used occasionally, the battery might possibly get discharged.
Batteries get discharged on their own because of the way they are built. The reason for the
discharge depends on the type of battery and the ambient temperature. When the temperature
rises, the degree of discharge will increase.
