BATTERY INSPECTION AND CHARGING
(TT-R125E/TT-R125LWE)
WARNING
Batteries generate explosive hydrogen gas
and contain electrolyte which is made of
poisonous and highly caustic sulfuric acid.
Therefore, always follow these preventive
measures:
Wear protective eye gear when handling
or working near batteries.
Charge batteries in a well-ventilated area.
Keep batteries away from fire, sparks or
open flames (e.g., welding equipment,
lighted cigarettes).
DO NOT SMOKE when charging or han-
dling batteries.
KEEP BATTERIES AND ELECTROLYTE
OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
Avoid bodily contact with electrolyte as it
can cause severe burns or permanent eye
injury.
FIRST AID IN CASE OF BODILY CONTACT:
EXTERNAL
Skin — Wash with water.
Eyes — Flush with water for 15 minutes
and get immediate medical attention.
INTERNAL
Drink large quantities of water or milk fol-
lowed with milk of magnesia, beaten egg
or vegetable oil. Get immediate medical
attention.
CAUTION:
Charging time, charging amperage and
charging voltage for an MF battery are dif-
ferent from those of conventional batteries.
The MF battery should be charged as
explained in the charging method illustra-
tions. If the battery is overcharged, the
electrolyte level will drop considerably.
Therefore, take special care when charging
the battery.

Brake fluid
1. Fill:
Brake fluid
Until the fluid level reaches “LOWER”
level line a.
WARNING
Use only the designated quality brake
fluid:
otherwise, the rubber seals may deterio-
rate, causing leakage and poor brake per-
formance.
Refill with the same type of brake fluid;
mixing fluids may result in a harmful chem-
ical reaction and lead to poor performance.
Be careful that water does not enter the
brake master cylinder when refilling.
Water will significantly lower the boiling
point of the fluid and may result in vapor
lock.
CAUTION:
Brake fluid may erode painted surfaces or
plastic parts. Always clean up spilled fluid
immediately.
Recommended brake fluid:
DOT #4
2. Air bleed:
Brake system
Refer to “BRAKE SYSTEM AIR
BLEEDING” section in the CHAPTER
3.
3. Inspect:
Brake fluid level
Fluid at lower level → Fill up.
