Battery Charge Port

To make it easier for you to quickly charge the starter battery, your Slingshot is equipped with a Battery Charge Port. The Battery Charge Port is located between the seats 1. A maintenance charger can be purchased through your authorized Polaris Slingshot dealer.

  1. Following the charger manufacturer’s instructions, use a battery charger designed for use with 12-volt AGM-style batteries. The charger should have a maximum charging rate of 1.8 amps. Charge the battery for approximately 10 hours at a rate of 1.8 amps. If you use a taper or trickle charger, it will take longer to charge the battery.

  2. After charging the battery, allow the battery to sit 1-2 hours before checking the state of charge with a DC volt meter. The charge should be a minimum of 12.5 DC volts. Repeat the charging cycle if the charge is less than 12.5 DC volts. Replace the battery if it fails to reach 12.5 volts after the second charge.

CAUTION
Before connecting a battery charger to the Battery Charge Port, ensure the vehicle has cooled to ambient temperature. Do not allow cables to rest on hot or sharp surfaces while charging.
