8.3 Starting power of lithium-ion batteries at low temperatures
402555-01
Lithium-ion batteries are far lighter than lead batteries, have a
low self-discharge rate, and have more starting power at temper-
atures over 6 °C (43 °F).
Several attempts to start may be required. Press the start button
for 5 seconds, and wait 15 seconds between attempts. At low
temperatures, wait for 30 seconds. The pauses are necessary
so that the heat created can distribute through the lithium-ion
battery and the lithium-ion battery is not damaged.
The starting power increases as the battery warms up.
Always make sure the lithium-ion battery is charged to that there
is enough power to spare for starting at low temperatures.
After 6 unsuccessful starting attempts, do not try again, and
check the vehicle for other errors instead.
8.4 Preparing the vehicle for difficult operating conditions
Info
Use of the vehicle under difficult conditions, such as on sand or on wet and muddy surfaces, can result
in significantly increased wear of components, such as the drive train, brake system, or suspension
components. For this reason, it may be necessary to inspect or replace parts before the next scheduled
service.
– Clean the air filter and air filter box. ( p. 69)
Info
Check the air filter approx. every 30 minutes.
– Check the electrical connector for humidity and corrosion and to ensure it is firmly seated.
» If humidity, corrosion, or damage is found:
– Clean and dry the connector, or change it if necessary.
Difficult operating conditions are:
– Rides on dry sand. ( p. 34)
– Rides on wet sand. ( p. 35)
– Rides on wet and muddy circuits. ( p. 35)
– Rides at high temperatures or slow riding. ( p. 36)
– Riding at low temperatures and in snow. ( p. 36)
