If the charged lithium-ion battery does not or only weakly turns
over the electric starter when temperatures are below 15 °C
(60 °F), then the battery is not faulty, but needs to be warmed up
internally to increase its starting power (current output).
The starting power increases as the battery warms up.
8.4 Preparing the vehicle for difficult riding conditions
Info
Use of the vehicle under difficult conditions, such as on sand or on wet and muddy surfaces, can lead to
considerably more rapid wear of components such as the drive train, brake system, or suspension compo-
nents. For this reason, it may be necessary to inspect or replace parts before the next scheduled service.
