OPERATING PROCEDURES
Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers.
Understanding the Charger
Plugging the charger into the vehicle’s charger receptacle will lock the vehicle out of operation. When the charger is
plugged into the vehicle’s charger receptacle, the charger will automatically turn on and the charger’s LED and the vehicle
receptacle’s LED will start flashing GREEN to indicate the batteries are charging.
Once a minimum battery voltage of 2 volts per cell (Vpc) is reached, the charger’s output current will change from a full cur-
rent charge to the trickle rated charging current. The length of charge time will vary by how depleted the batteries are, the
input AC voltage, and/or charger ambient temperatures. The charger’s LED will give a SHORT flash if the charge is less
than 80% and a LONG flash if the charge is greater than 80%. If the charger’s LED is a steady GREEN the batteries are
fully charged and the charger may be unplugged, although not necessary. The charger may be left plugged in for long peri-
ods of time to maintain the batteries charge level.
If a fault occurred anytime during the charging the charger’s LED will quickly flash RED. The specific fault is indicated by
the number of RED flashes that occur, there will be a pause and then the flashes will repeat again. There are several possi-
ble conditions that will generate errors. Some errors will require human intervention to first resolve the problem and then
reset the charger by unplugging the DC cord from the vehicle.
If the AC voltage is interrupted and restored, the charger will turn back on automatically.
LED Operation Codes:
SHORT GREEN FLASH = less than 80% charged
LONG GREEN FLASH = more than 80% charged
SOLID GREEN = 100% charged
