Warning

–
Do not dispose of batteries as household waste.
–
Return batteries to your authorized Husqvarna Motorcycles dealer or dispose of them at a collection
point for used batteries.

Info
Even when there is no load on the battery, it discharges steadily.
The charging level and the method of charging are very important for the service life of the battery.
Rapid recharging with a high charging current shortens the service life of the battery.
If the charging current, charging voltage, or charging time are exceeded, the battery will be destroyed.
If the battery is depleted by repeated starting, the battery must be charged immediately.
If the battery is left in a discharged state for an extended period, it will become over-discharged and sul-
fated, destroying the battery.
The battery is maintenance-free.
