Battery

If the watercraft will not be used for more than a month, disconnect the negative (–) lead first, then the positive (+) lead and breather hose, and then remove the battery from the watercraft.

Clean the battery casing using fresh water.

If the battery terminals are dirty or cor- roded, clean them with a wire brush.

Fully charge the battery, and then store it in a cool, dark place.

Apply Yamaha marine grease or Yamaha grease A to the battery terminals.

Check the battery at least every 2 months and fully charge it if necessary.

WARNING

Be sure to connect the breather hose to the battery. Fire or explosion could result if the breather hose is damaged, obstructed, or not connected properly.

CAUTION:

The battery may not be usable again if you store it for a long period without charging it. Charge the battery periodi- cally.
