n Avoid stop-and-go driving.
What type and size of battery should I use?
We recommend deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. Both AGM and Gel-Cell are deep-cycle
batteries that are similar in performance. Do not use wet-cell batteries, which have removable caps.
NOTE: Sealed batteries are not serviceable. Do not remove the caps.
Use these specifications to reorder deep-cycle batteries:
Type: Deep-cycle (AGM or Gel-Cell)
Size: U-1 (32 AH only), 40 AH (Amp Hours)
Voltage: 12 volts each
Amperage: 32 AH or 40 AH
WARNING! Corrosive chemicals contained in batteries. Use only AGM or Gel-Cell batteries
to reduce the risk of leakage or explosive conditions.
To change a battery in your Hurricane PMV:
1. Remove the seat and the rear shroud. See IX. Disassembly and Assembly.
2. Disconnect the battery tie-down strap (if equipped).
3. Disconnect the battery cables from the electronics module.
4. Disconnect the battery cables from the battery terminals.
5. Remove the old battery.
6. Place a new battery in the battery well.
7. Connect the red battery cable to the positive (+) battery terminal.
8. Connect the black battery cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.
9. Reconnect the battery cables to the electronics module.
10. Reconnect the battery tie-down strap (if equipped).
11. Reinstall the rear shroud and the seat.
Why do my new batteries seem weak?
Deep-cycle batteries employ a different chemical technology than that used in car batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries
(nicads), or in other common battery types. Deep-cycle batteries are specifically designed to provide power, drain
down their charge, and then accept a relatively quick recharge.
We work closely with our battery manufacturer to provide batteries that best suit your Hurricanes specific electrical
demands. Fresh batteries arrive daily at Pride and are shipped fully charged to our customers. During shipping, the
batteries may encounter temperature extremes that may influence their initial performance. Heat diminishes the
charge on the battery; cold slows the available power and extends the time needed to recharge the battery.

WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead
compounds. Wash hands after handling.
