SIX DAYS

BATTERY

The sealed battery does not require any
maintenance. If electrolyte leaks, or other failure of
the electrical system is detected, contact the SWM
Dealer.
If the vehicle remains unused for long periods (≥ 3
weeks/1 month), it is recommended to disconnect
the battery from the electrical system and store it
in a dry place.
- After an intensive use of the battery, it is advisable
to carry out a standard slow charging cycle
(12V-14Ah battery: 1.4A for 10 hours).
- Quick charging is advised only in situations of
extreme necessity since the life of lead elements is
drastically reduced by such cycle (12V-14Ah battery:
2.5A for 2 hours).

BATTERY CHARGER

To gain access to the battery (1):
- Remove the left-hand side panel.
- First remove the BLACK negative cable (2) and then
the RED positive cable (3) (when refitting, first
connect the RED positive cable and then the BLACK
negative cable).
- Undo the two screws (4) that fasten the battery
support bracket (5).
- Remove the battery (1) from its housing.
Check, using a voltmeter, that battery voltage is not
less than 12.5 V.
If it is not so, the battery needs to be charged.
Using a battery charger with a constant voltage,
first connect the RED positive cable to the battery
positive terminal then the BLACK negative cable to
the battery negative terminal.
The voltage reaches a constant value only after a
few hours, therefore it is suggested NOT to measure
it immediately after having charged or discharged
the battery.
Always check the battery charge before reinstalling
it on the vehicle.
The battery should be kept clean and the terminals
coated with grease.
