NOTE:

FEATURESOIL INDICATOR LIGHTFunctionPulses (travel distance signals) from the speedometer are counted and cause the oil indicator light tocome on at 1,000 km for the first time and thereafter every 3,000 km. In this way, this light indicates thetime for oil change.

Circuit diagram

Resetting procedureTravel distance can be reset if the reset button is held down for 2 to 5 seconds with the main switch“ON”.

1) If the “resetting” is done while the oil light is on, the oil indicator light goes off for resetting con-firmation.

2) If the “resetting” is done while the oil light is off, the oil indicator light comes on for 1.4 secondsfor resetting confirmation.

Failure diagnosis1) Checking oil indicator light for breakage

This oil indicator light is kept on for 1.4 seconds immediately after the main switch is turned on,thereby checking the bulb for breakage.

2) In case of meter pulse failureIf travel distance signals are not detected during running, the oil indicator light flashes and gives awarning of meter signal failure.

This circuit may be activated if the engine is accelerated without load with the mainestand put up.

Battery tending to discharge.If the starting motor is run with the battery tending to discharge, the oil indicator light may come on (for1.4 seconds), but this is noting abnormal.In this case recharge or replace battery.

This light comes on if battery charging becomes poor, thereby causing the engine to runas low as about 200 rpm against 600 rpm or so,

ELECTRICALBATTERY INSPECTION

Since the MF battery is a sealed type battery, itis not possible to measure the specific gravity ofthe electrolyte in order to check the charge stateof the battery. Therefore the charge of the bat-tery has to be checked by measuring the volt-age at the battery terminals.

CHARGING METHOD This is a sealed type battery. Never re-

move the sealing caps. If the sealing capshave been removed, the balance will notbe maintained and battery performancewill deteriorate.

Charging time, charging current andcharging voltage for the MF battery aredifferent from those of batterie of generaltype.

The MF battery should be charged as ex-plained in “CHARGING METHOD”. if thebattery is overcharged, the electrolytelevel will drop considerably. Therefore,take special care when charging the bat-tery.

Battery electrolyte is dangerous; it containssulfuric acid which is poisonous and highlycaustic. Always follow these preventive mea-

sures: Avoid bodily contact with electrolyte as it

can cause severe burns or permanent eyeinjury.

Wear protective eye gear when handlingor working near batteries.

Antidote (EXTERNAL): SKIN-Flush with water. EYES-Flush with water for 15 minutes and

get immediate medical attention.Antidote (INTERNAL): Drink large quantities of water or milk fol-

lowed with milk of magnesia, beaten eggor vegetable oil. Get immediate medicalattention.

5. Charging method for MF batteries

If it is impossible to set the standardcharging current, be careful not to over-charge.

When charging the battery, be sure to re-move it from the motorcycle. (If charginghas to be done with the battery mountedon the motorcycle, be sure to disconnectthe wire at the negative terminal.)

Never remove the sealing caps of an MFbattery.

Make sure that the charging clips are infull contact with the terminal and that theyare not shorted together. (A corroded clipon the charger may cause the battery togenerate heat in the contact area. A weakclip spring may cause sparks.)

Before removing the clips from the bat-tery terminals, be sure to turn off the char-ger’s power switch.

The open-circuit voltage variation for theMF battery after charging is shown below.As shown in the figure, the open-circuitvoltage stabilizes about 30 minutes aftercharging has been completed.

Therefore, wait 30 minutes after chargingis completed before measuring the open-circuit voltage.

Measure the open-circuitvoltage prior to charging.

Connect a charger andAMP meter to the battery,and start charging.

Make sure the current ishigher than the standardcharging current written onthe battery.

By turning the charging voltageadjust dial, set the chargingvoltage at 20 25 V.

Adjust the voltage so that cur-rent is at standard charginglevel.

Monitor the amperage for 3 5 minutes to check if the stan-dard charging current isreached.

Set the timer according to thecharging time suitable for theopen-circuit voltage. Refer tothe “Battery condition check-ing steps” section.

If current does notexceed standardcharging currentafter 5 minutes, re-place the battery.

In case that charging requires more than 5 hours, it is advisable tocheck the charging current after a lapse of 5 hours. If there is anychange in the amperage, readjust the voltage to obtain the standardcharging current.
