Dry-charge battery
Battery recharge
Normal bench charging must be carried out using the special (single or multiple) battery charger, setting
the battery charge selector to the type of battery that needs recharging (i.e., at a current equal to 1/10
of the battery rated capacity). Connections to the power supply source must be implemented by con-
necting corresponding poles (+ to + and - to - ).
WARNING
BEFORE RECHARGING THE BATTERY, REMOVE THE CAPS OF EACH CELL.
KEEP THE BATTERY AWAY FROM NAKED FLAMES OR SPARKS WHILE IT IS CHARGED.
FIRST DETACH THE NEGATIVE LEAD BEFORE REMOVING THE BATTERY FROM THE VEHICLE.

Battery cleaning
The battery should always be kept clean, especially on its top side, and the terminals should be coated
with Vaseline.
CAUTION
NEVER USE FUSES WITH A CAPACITY HIGHER THAN THAT RECOMMENDED.
USING A FUSE OF UNSUITABLE RATING MAY SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THE VEHICLE OR EVEN
CAUSE A FIRE.
CAUTION
DRINKING WATER CONTAINS MINERALS THAT CAN BE EXTREMELY HARMFUL TO THE BAT-
TERY: USE DISTILLED WATER ONLY.
CAUTION
TO ENSURE MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE THE BATTERY MUST BE CHARGED BEFORE USE.
INADEQUATE CHARGING OF THE BATTERY WITH A LOW ELECTROLYTE LEVEL BEFORE IT
IS FIRST USED SHORTENS THE LIFE OF THE BATTERY.
Charging status check
After topping-up the electrolyte level, check the density using special densimeter
When the battery is charged, you should detect a density of 30 to 32 Bé corresponding to a specific
weight of 1.26 to 1.28 at a temperature of no lower than 15° C.
A density reading of less than 20° Bé indicates that the battery is completely flat and it must therefore
be recharged.
If the scooter is not used for a given time (1 month or more) it will be necessary to periodically recharge
the battery.
The battery runs down completely in the course of three months. If it is necessary to refit the battery in
the vehicle, be careful not to reverse the connections, remembering that the ground wire (
