ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS8-100NOTE:If the current is lower than the standard charg-ing current written on the battery, this type ofbattery charger cannot charge the MF battery.A variable voltage charger is recommended.d. Charge the battery until the battery’s charg-ing voltage is 15 V.NOTE:Set the charging time at 20 hours (maximum).e. Measure the battery open-circuit voltageafter leaving the battery unused for morethan 30 minutes.▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲6. Install:• Battery7.

Install:• Rider and passenger seatEAS28040CHECKING THE RELAYSCheck each switch for continuity with thepocket tester. If the continuity reading is incor-rect, replace the relay.1. Disconnect the relay from the wire harness.2. Connect the pocket tester (Ω × 1) and bat-tery (12 V) to the relay terminal as shown.Check the relay operation.Out of specification → Replace.Relay unit (starting circuit cut-off relay)FZ1-NFZ1-S12.8 V or more --- Charging is complete.12.7 V or less --- Recharging is required.Under 12.0 V --- Replace the battery.Recommended lubricantDielectric greasePocket tester90890-03112Analog pocket testerYU-03112-C1.
