CHARGER MAINTENANCE
See General Warnings on page 1-1.
To ensure trouble-free performance, it is very important to follow an established preventive maintenance program.
Regular and consistent maintenance can prevent vehicle downtime and expensive repairs that can result from neglect.
Any charger not functioning correctly should be removed from use until it is properly repaired. This will prevent further
damage to the vehicle and avoid the possibility of injury due to unsafe conditions.
To perform all periodic service, see Periodic Maintenance on page 10-1.
To perform all troubleshooting, see Charger Troubleshooting on page 15-23.
To perform all repairs, see External Charger Repairs on page 15-32.
WARNING
• If any problems are found during scheduled inspection or service, do not operate the vehicle until
repairs are made. Failure to make necessary repairs could result in fire, property damage, severe
personal injury, or death.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry, such as rings, watches, chains, etc., when servicing the charger.
• Do not expose charger to oil, dirt, mud or direct heavy water spray when cleaning vehicle.
• Keep all AC connections and the USB port clean and dry.
• Keep all cooling fins clean.
• If the detachable input power supply cord set is damaged, replace with a cord that meets the following criteria:
_
For North America: UL or CSA listed/approved detachable cord, 3 conductor, 16AWG minimum, and rated SJT; terminating in
a grounding type IEC 60320 C14 plug rated 250V, 13A minimum.
For all other countries: Safety approved detachable cord, 3 conductor, 1.5mm²; minimum, rated appropriately for industrial use.
The cord set must be terminated on one end with a grounding type input connector appropriate for use in
the country of destination and, on the other end, an output grounding type IEC 60320 C14 plug.
USB SERVICE PORT CLEANING AND CARE
Depending on environmental conditions, such as coastal locations, open-air storage facilities, possible contamination
in the USB port could result, preventing connectivity. If a poor connection is experienced, cleaning the USB port located
in the front of the charger with an approved electrical contact cleaner will restore the connection.
Always reinstall the USB port dust cover after cleaning and use.
After cleaning, preventative maintenance of the USB port should include applying dielectric grease into the port cavity
or applying Corrosion Block
