Battery charging times may increase with battery age and usage. Under normal
use, the battery will undergo 500 charging and discharging cycles. After much
use, your battery's charge holding capacity will decrease. If you find that your
battery does not hold sufficient charge even for short trips, you should contact
your dealer to order a replacement.
