RECEPTACLE FUSE LINK
As an additional feature to protect the batteries and charging circuit from an overload, the electric vehicle is
equipped with a receptacle fuse link
(Figure 24-8, Page 24-14)
. If the charger does not come on when the
vehicle is placed on charge, visually inspect the fuse link.
See following WARNING.
ý
WARNING
• If the receptacle fuse link is blown, determine the source of the electrical problem and correct
it before replacing the fuse. Contact your nearest Club Car distributor/dealer.
CHARGER SHUTS OFF AFTER 16 HOURS
This may be due to 1) new batteries, 2) hard use, or 3) cold temperatures. A catch-up charge may be neces-
sary when these conditions are present. On those days when all or some of the vehicles do not get used,
check the batteries for state of charge. Any battery with a specific gravity lower than 1.250 will need a catch-
up charge. If the problem continues after a catch-up charge has been performed, check the battery charger.
Refer to the appropriate battery charger maintenance and service manual.
See Section 25 – Battery
Charger: Electric Vehicle.
DEEP-DISCHARGE
Never discharge batteries to the point the vehicle will no longer operate. This will considerably shorten the
cycle life of the batteries, and may permanently damage the batteries. It is possible the batteries will not
accept a charge if they are completely discharged. The deeper the discharge, the harder it is on the batteries.
For this reason, it is recommended that electric vehicle batteries be charged after each use (provided the
charge cycle will not be interrupted and the charger will be allowed to shut off automatically). Placing the bat-
teries on charge after each use reduces the depth of discharge and prolongs battery life.
