Battery

Your KYMCO scooter is equipped with a maintenance-free
(sealed) battery. Therefore, it is not necessary to check the
battery's electrolyte level or add distilled water .
NOTE: If your battery seems weak and/or is leaking elec-
trolyte (causing hard starting or other electrical troubles),
contact your KYMCO dealer immediately .
Your battery is a maintenance-free type and can be per-
manently damaged if the cap strip is removed.
Charge the battery with a charger specifically designed
for use with a maintenance-free type battery. Using an-
other type of charger can damage the battery.
Your scooter's battery gives off explosive hydrogen gas
during normal operation. A spark or flame can cause
the battery to explode with enough force to kill or seri-
ously injure you.
Wear protective clothing and a face shield, or have a
qualified technician perform the battery maintenance.
Battery removal & installation
The battery is in a compartment under the scooter's right body
panel (see next page).
