What type and size of battery should I use?
We recommend deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. Both sealed lead acid and Gel Cell are
deep-cycle batteries that are similar in performance in your Celebrity. Do not use wet-cell batteries, which have
removable caps.
NOTE: Sealed batteries are not serviceable. Do not remove the caps.
Use these specifications to reorder deep-cycle batteries:
Type: Deep-cycle (AGM or Gel-Cell)
Size: U-1
Voltage: 12 volts each
Amperage: 32 AH (amp hours)
To change a battery in your Celebrity:
1. Remove the seat and the rear shroud. See IX. Disassembly and Assembly.
2. Disconnect the battery cables from the electronic controller.
3. Disconnect the battery cables from the battery terminals.
4. Remove the old battery.
5. Place a new battery in the battery well.
6. Connect the red battery cable to the positive (+) battery terminal.
7. Connect the black battery cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.
8. Reconnect the battery cables to the electronic controller.
9. Reinstall the rear shroud and the seat.
Why do my new batteries seem weak?
Deep-cycle batteries employ a different chemical technology than is used in car batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries
(nicads), or in other common battery types. Deep-cycle batteries are specifically designed to provide power, drain
down their charge, and then accept a relatively quick recharge.
We work closely with our battery manufacturer to provide batteries that best suit your Celebritys specific electri-
cal demands. Fresh batteries arrive daily at Pride and are shipped fully charged to our customers. During shipping,
the batteries may encounter temperature extremes that may influence their initial performance.
