Ski-Doo Ski Doo MX Z 2005 [310/1429] Warning
Section07ELECTRICALSYSTEM
Subsection 02 (CHARGING SYSTEM)
WARNING
Should the battery casing be damaged, wear
a suitable pair of non-absorbent gloves when
removing the battery by hand.
Inspect battery posts for security of mounting.
Battery Charge Testing
Voltmeter Test
NOTE: To determine the battery state of charge,
these sealed batteries have to be tested with a
voltmeter. They also need to be tested when their
voltage is stabilized. Disconnect battery to have
open connectors and wait 1-2 hours prior to read-
ing the voltage. The same condition is required
after a battery has been charged.
Batteries with a voltage above 12.8 V do not need
to be charged.
Batteries with a voltage of 12.8 V and below need
to be charged. Refer to BATTERY CHARGING be-
low.
BATTERY STORAGE
CAUTION: A discharged battery will freeze and
it may damage its casing. A damaged casing
will allow electrolyte spillage that may damage
surrounding parts.
Disconnect and remove battery from the vehicle.
The battery must always be stored in fully charged
condition.
Clean battery terminals and cable connections us-
ing a wire brush. Apply a light coat of silicone di-
electric grease (P/N 293 550 004) or petroleum jel-
ly on terminals.
Clean battery casing using a solution of baking so-
da and water. Rinse battery with clear water and
dry well using a clean cloth.
Charge the battery every month if stored at tem-
perature below 15°C(60°F).
Charge the battery every two week if stored at
temperature above 15°C(60°F).
Activation of New Battery
Refer to the instructions provided with the battery.
Battery Charging
WARNING
Always wear safety glasses and charge in
a ventilated area. Never charge or boost
battery while installed on vehicle. Do not
open the sealed caps during charging. Do
not place battery near open flame.
CAUTION: If battery becomes hot, stop charg-
ing and allow it to cool before continuing.
NOTE: Sealed VRLA batteries have an internal
safety valve. If battery pressure increases due to
overcharging, the valve opens to release excess
pressure, preventing battery damage.
Perform BATTERY CHARGE TESTING above then
proceed as described here.
An automatic charger is the fastest and most con-
venient way for error-proof charging.
When using a constant current charger, charge
battery according to the chart below.
