If you are riding your vehicle infrequently, inspect
the battery voltage weekly using a voltmeter.
If
it drops below 12.6 volts, the battery should be
charged using an appropriate charger (check with

you will not be using your vehicle for longer than
two weeks, the battery should be charged using an
appropriate charger. Do not use an automotive-type
quick charger that may overcharge the battery and
damage it.

cal components to make the battery discharged,
resulting the over discharge of the battery. In this

not included in the warranty. If you do not drive for
four weeks or more, disconnect the battery from
the vehicle.
