Battery Information
These vehicles are equipped with a VRLA battery
(Valve Regulated Lead Acid). It is a maintenance-
free type battery.
When filling a new battery, use only the elec-
trolyte container that comes with the battery.
Sealed VRLA battery electrolyte is a higher con-
centration of sulfuric acid. All sealed VRLA bat-
tery electrolyte containers are not the same. Each
contains the proper amount of electrolyte for its
specific battery.
CAUTION: Never remove the sealing strip after
charging is completed.
Refer to battery manufacturer's instructions for
proper filling, activation and routine charging pro-
cedures.
Troubleshooting

– loose or bad connections
– faulty battery (does not keep a full charge)
– main fuse burnt, faulty voltage regulator/rectifi-
er or stator
– short circuit or battery drain (proceed with cur-
rent leakage test).
Current Leakage Test
