Battery
This snowmobile is equipped with a sealed-
type (MF) battery, which does not require any
maintenance. There is no need to check the
electrolyte or to add distilled water.
To charge the battery
Have a Yamaha dealer charge the battery as
soon as possible if it seems to have dis-
charged. Keep in mind that the battery tends
to discharge more quickly if the snowmobile is
equipped with electrical accessories.
Periodic maintenance
