The assignment describes typical application vehicles for this battery class. The decisive factor is always the comparison of the technical data with the battery holder and terminal layout provided in the vehicle.

Installation and Application Notes:

• The battery is sealed and pre-charged and can be installed directly.
• During longer periods of inactivity, especially in winter, the battery should be removed and stored in a dry and warm place.

To recharge, a suitable charger for motorcycle batteries must be used, as the charging current for sealed gel batteries must be low.

Note on verification before purchase:

• Before purchase, the design, dimensions 205 x 85 x 162 mm, terminal layout positive terminal right, and the battery class specified for the vehicle should be compared with the specifications of this battery.

Gel Batteries: Care & Notes

GEL batteries are maintenance-free and specifically designed for use in motorcycles, scooters, and light two-wheelers.

To maintain their lifespan and performance, deep discharge must be avoided at all costs, as this can permanently damage GEL batteries. During longer periods of inactivity, regular recharging with a charger suitable for GEL batteries is recommended, as a charging voltage that is too high can damage the gel structure.

The battery should always be mounted firmly and kept clean and dry to avoid vibrations, contact problems, and leakage currents. A sufficient state of charge is particularly important in the cold season, as GEL batteries also lose performance at low temperatures.

Note on Battery Disposal

Old batteries must not be disposed of in household waste. End-users are legally obliged to return batteries to a suitable collection point. Starter batteries can be returned free of charge to municipal collection points or retailers who carry starter batteries. The symbol of the crossed-out dustbin indicates this obligation.

Shipping of old batteries via regular parcel services is generally not possible due to hazardous goods regulations. Alternatively, old batteries can be disposed of free of charge at municipal recycling centers or in specialist shops.

Meaning of Battery Symbols

Batteries are marked with the symbol of a crossed-out dustbin. This symbol indicates that batteries must not be placed in household waste.

For batteries containing more than 0.0005 mass percent mercury, more than 0.002 mass percent cadmium, or more than 0.004 mass percent lead, the chemical designation of the respective pollutant used is located under the dustbin symbol - where "Cd" stands for cadmium, "Pb" stands for lead, and "Hg" for mercury.
