See your Polaris dealer for inspection of the voltage regulator and generator.
When using an automatic charger such as the Polaris Battery Tender, refer to the manufac-
turer's instructions for recharging. When using a constant current charger, use the guidelines

An overheated battery could explode, causing severe injury or death. Always watch charging times
carefully. Stop charging if the battery becomes very warm to the touch. Allow it to cool before
resuming charging.
