3.3.1.E AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT SWITCH (OPTIONAL)
A switch for auxiliary equipment will be located in this position.
3.3.1.F HOUR METER INDICATOR (OPTIONAL)
The hour meter indicates the total number of hours the vehicle has been operating. It would be located
immediately below the Battery State of Charge meter.
3.3.1.G BATTERY STATE OF CHARGE METER
This meter will display the battery state of charge. As shown, it is an analog gauge with an indicating
needle and a colored background. It is a continuously reading meter. At rest with fully charged batteries
the meter should read in the white region.
When accelerating quickly, the needle will move to the green region nearest the red region. This is normal
and will recover once vehicle achieves constant speed. If the needle continues past the green region into
the very far left red region, it indicates that the batteries are 80% discharged or basically empty (only 20%
charge remaining). Recharge as soon as possible to avoid a shut-down of the vehicle. When decreasing
speed, the needle will move slightly to the right as electrical energy is being “regenerated” back into the
batteries
.
NOTICE: At 80% discharge, you must immediately charge batteries or vehicle operation will cease and permanent
battery damage could occur.
3.3.1.H SYSTEM STATUS LIGHT
