Power Pack and Charging
5.4
To charge using the standard on-board charging equipment:
1. Plug the supplied power cord (A) into the on-board charger
connector. Always keep the power cord with the motorcycle.
2. Always connect the charger to a GROUNDED outlet. When
using an extension cord, avoid excessive voltage drops by
using a grounded, 3-wire, 12-AWG cord no longer than 25 ft
(7.6 m). The charger can be used on 120 V AC or 240 V AC
current. The voltage does not change the amount of time that
the motorcycle takes to charge.
Note: AVOID connecting the Zero charger and another
device to a single 120 V AC 15A/20A circuit, as it may
become overloaded. Zero chargers draw as much as 14 amps
from the 120 V AC circuit when charging.
3. The charging icon (A) flashes as the battery is being
charged. Once charging is complete, the icon stays
illuminated.
4. For charging times, refer to the Technical Specifications
section for charging times specific to the model and
equipment level of your Zero Motorcycle. See “Technical
Specifications”, on page 8.1.
Note: The charging icon is solid green when fully charged and
plugged into the charger.
