GENERAL OPERATION
Before operating your Alero for the first time, we advise you to fully charge your batteries.
Most batteries are not fully charged when shipped from the manufacturer. While in storage,
batteries can lose some of their charge. Charging your batteries will ensure you get peak
performance from your Alero from the very first time you use it.
Charging Your Batteries
The battery charger is an automatic current limiting device. It is designed to shut itself down
when the batteries are fully charged. It is advisable to charge your batteries for a minimum of
10 hours per night to ensure a full return to the batteries storage capacity.
