The portable charger is shipped with the vehicle. Prior to vehicle or charger operation, the charger must be removed
from the vehicle. A dedicated circuit is required for the charger. Refer to the charger manual for appropriate circuit
protection. For optimum performance and shortest charge times, place the charger in an area with adequate ventila-
tion and relatively free of dirt, mud, or dust. If the charger is operated in an outdoor location, rain and sun protection
must be provided. The charger may get hot during operation and must be placed such that risk of contact by people is
reduced.
Looping the DC cord through the steering wheel when charging serves as a good reminder to store the cord out of the way when
finished with charging. The DC plug can be damaged by driving over or catching the cord on the vehicle when driving away.
An ungrounded electrical device may become a physical hazard that could result in an electrical
shock or electrocution.
Using the Charger
Before using the charger read the operation manual that was supplied with the charger.
To prevent a physical hazard that could result in an electrical shock or electrocution, be sure that
the charger plug is not damaged and is inserted into a grounded receptacle.
The power (AC) cord is equipped with a grounded plug. Do not attempt to pull out, cut or bend the
ground post.
The charging (DC) cord is equipped with a polarized connector that
fits into a matching receptacle on the vehicle. The receptacle is
located in the seat panel below the seat on the driver’s side of the
vehicle.
