WATERING INTERVALS
The watering intervals are affected by:
• Age of the batteries
• Application
• Charging methods
• Local climate
Examine the consumption rates manually. Examine new batteries monthly until consumption rates are
known. Examine used batteries weekly until consumption rates are known. The watering interval must
maintain the electrolyte level above the top of the plates.
During periods of heavy use, water the batteries no more than one time a week. During periods of light
use, water the batteries no more than one time a month. Only add water to a warm battery that is fully
charged. Do not add water to the batteries before charging.
WATER QUALITY
OVERVIEW
Water purity is one of the more important factors in the performance and life of the vehicle batteries.
Club Car has put an increased importance on water purity and battery maintenance. Club Car
recommends the use of distilled water or a deionizer because of the cost of water testing and
fluctuations in the daily changes to water quality.
