PORTABLE CHARGER INSTALLATION
To reduce the possibility of overheating that may cause serious damage to the charger
and create the potential for fire, do not block or obstruct the airways. Portable chargers
must be mounted on a platform above the ground or in such a manner as to permit the
maximum air flow underneath and around the charger.
Proper Charger Installation
Portable chargers are shipped with the vehicle. Prior to vehicle or charger operation, chargers must be removed and
mounted on a platform or wall above the ground to permit maximum air flow around and underneath the charger. If
the charger is operated in an outdoor location, rain and sun protection must be provided. A dedicated circuit is
required for the charger. Refer to the charger manual for appropriate circuit protection. The charger may remain
plugged in to the AC outlet. To charge the vehicle, refer to the instruction labels on the charger. Insert the polarized
DC plug completely into the vehicle receptacle
The charger will automatically start a few seconds after plug insertion. The charger will automatically stop when
batteries are fully charged and the DC plug can be removed to permit use of the vehicle.
