Battery Installation
1. Place the battery in its holder. Attach the hold down strap.

securely installed. Route the vent line properly to prevent kinks and
to allow for proper drainage.
3. Connect and tighten the red (positive) cable first.
4. Connect and tighten the black (negative) cable last.
5. Verify that cables and vent hose are properly routed.
Battery Storage
When your snowmobile is placed in storage for one month or more:
• Remove the battery.
• Charge it to the proper level.
• Store it in a cool dry place.
• Check and/or charge monthly.
Before using the battery, take it to your dealer for testing and recharging.
Batteries may freeze if not fully charged, resulting in cell damage.
WARNING
Batteries contain gases that can explode. If the battery vent tube is pinched
or kinked, battery gases could accumulate. Whenever removing or installing
the battery, disconnect the negative (black) cable first and reinstall the nega-
tive cable last to avoid the possibility of explosion.
Battery electrolyte contains acid. Avoid skin contact with electrolyte as
severe burns may result.
