Battery Removal and Installation
Improper handling of high voltage wiring, batter-
ies, or control systems could result in serious or
fatal injury by electric shock. Only qualified techni-
cians should repair or access high voltage wiring,
battery packs, and associated systems.
To prevent battery explosion that could result in
severe personal injury or death, use extreme care
with aerosol containers of battery terminal pro-
tectant. Insulate the metal container to prevent the
metal can from contacting battery terminals, which
could result in an explosion.
If the batteries are replaced, make sure they are the
exact type and model originally supplied with the vehi-
cle. Failure to follow this caution can result in damage
to the vehicles electrical system.
.
Prolonged Storage
During periods of storage, the batteries must be maintained to
prevent discharge.
In winter conditions, the batteries must be fully charged to
prevent the possibility of freezing. A fully charged battery will
not freeze in temperatures above -75° F (-60° C). Although
the chemical reaction is slowed in cold temperatures, the bat-
tery must be stored fully charged, and disconnected from any
circuit that could discharge the battery.
The batteries must be cleaned and all deposits neutralized
and removed from the battery case to prevent self discharge.
The battery charger may be left connected to the vehicle to
maintain a full charge on the batteries, provided the charger is
plugged into an active electrical source. If power to the electri-
cal source is disconnected or interrupted, the battery charger
will continue to check the charge on the battery pack. This will
draw power from the battery pack and eventually drain the
batteries if power is not restored in a timely manner.
