Maintaining The Battery Charge - Ducati DIAVEL V4 2024 Owner's Manual

Maintaining the battery charge

Attention
The electric system of this motorcycle is
designed so as to ensure there is a very low power
drain when the motorcycle is OFF. Nevertheless, the
battery features a certain self-discharge rate that is
normal and depends on ambient conditions as well
as on "non-use" time.
Your motorcycle is equipped with a connector (A)
(diagnostic socket), located under the rider seat, to
which you can connect a special battery charger (B)
available at our sales network.
To gain access, remove the rider seat as described in
chapter "Removing and refitting the seat".
Slide out the plug (1) by pressing the tab from the
base of connector (A) and connect the connector to
the battery charger (B).
Important
If battery is not kept at a minimum charge level
by a suitable battery charge maintainer, sulphation
may occur and this is an irreversible phenomenon
causing decreasing battery performance.
