Storage – Electric Vehicles with QuiQ™ Battery Chargers
CAUTION
• Be sure to check the batteries and charger monthly to maintain correct battery water level and to
ensure the charger is operating correctly during storage.
13. To disconnect the batteries for storage:
13.1. Disconnect B- battery cable that comes from the OBC and secure it in a way that ensures the cable will not
come into contact with battery terminal.
RETURNING THE STORED ELECTRIC VEHICLE TO SERVICE
1.
If necessary, connect batteries.
See Connecting the Batteries – Electric Vehicles on page 13.
2.
Fully charge batteries.
3.
Adjust tires to recommended tire pressure.
See Vehicle Specifications – Electric Vehicles on page 64.
4.
Perform the Pre-Operation and Daily Safety Checklist on page 24 and the Performance Inspection on page 25.
STORAGE – ELECTRIC VEHICLES WITH QuiQ™ BATTERY CHARGERS
See General Warnings on page 10.
Electric vehicles shipped to the state of California use the Delta-Q QuiQ battery charger to meet CEC regulatory
requirements.
WARNING
• Turn the key switch to the OFF position, remove the key, and leave the Forward/Reverse handle or
switch in the NEUTRAL position during storage. This is to prevent unintentionally starting the vehicle
or a fire hazard. Place Tow/Run switch in the TOW position.
• Do not attempt to charge frozen batteries or batteries with bulged cases. Discard the battery. Frozen
batteries can explode.
CAUTION
• Batteries in a low state of charge will freeze at low temperatures.
• To avoid exposing electrical components to moisture and subsequent damage, do not use any type or
pressure washing or steam cleaning equipment to wash the vehicle.
PREPARING THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE FOR EXTENDED STORAGE
Check Battery Water Levels Two Weeks Prior to Storage
Check water levels at least two weeks prior to winter storage to ensure proper mixing of water and electrolyte. Note that
it takes approximately five charge cycles with a minimum of 10 amp hours removed after each charge to properly mix
the water with electrolyte. Do NOT water batteries immediately prior to storage because this will not provide sufficient
charge time to mix the water with the electrolyte. Freezing can occur when batteries are stored in this condition.
1.
Check the water levels in each battery cell. If water is required, fill the cells to cover the plates, charge the
batteries, and then use distilled water to fill each cell to the correct level. Electrolyte level should be from 1/2 inch
(13 mm) above plates to 1/4 inch (6 mm) below the level indicator
(Figure 20)
