NOTE:
First, disconnect the negative battery lead
①, and then the positive battery lead ②.
• Remove:
battery
• Check:
battery charge
a.
Connect a pocket tester to the battery
terminals.
NOTE:
• The charge state of an MF battery can be
checked by measuring its open-circuit
voltage (i.e., the voltage when the positive
terminal is disconnected).
• No charging is necessary when the
open-
circuit voltage equals or exceeds 12.8V.
b. Check the charge of the battery, as shown in
the charts and the following example.
Example
c. Open-circuit voltage = 12.0 V
d. Charging time = 6.5 hours
e. Charge of the battery = 20 ~ 30%
2. Charge:
• battery(refer to the appropriate charging
method illustration) .
WARNING
:
Do not quick charge a battery.
