ORIGINAL TYPE BATTERY This battery is sold with electrolyte, so it needs to be filled. It is maintenance-free and therefore does not require acid level checks.

• Remove the adhesive tab just before filling.
• Add acid to the battery using the filling kit.
• Let the battery rest for 1 hour without caps.
• Charge the battery without caps using a motorcycle charger (Optimate type charger). The charging duration is indicated in the following table:

Power	Charging Duration
Up to 6 Ah	1 to 2 hours
8 Ah	2 to 3 hours
10 Ah	3 to 4 hours
12 Ah	4 to 5 hours
From 14 to 18 Ah	5 to 6 hours

• Close the battery with the cap tab. These caps (forced fit) will ensure the battery's seal. Your battery is ready to be used!

If the battery is not used, it should be charged once a month (with an Optimate type motorcycle battery charger).
IMPORTANT: If this initial charge is not performed (or performed with an unsuitable charger), the battery will lose 20% of its nominal capacity as well as 30% of its lifespan. A battery that remains completely discharged for more than a month will deteriorate irreversibly.
