Battery Conditioning
New batteries cannot initially hold all of their capacity. The approximate
capacity of the
battery pack increases as the number of charge cycles increases.
# of Charge Cycles: New 15 30 45
Percent of Full Capacity: 80% 90% 95% 100%
Ambient Temperature Implications on Batteries
1. Battery range decreases as ambient temperature decreases. This
can affect the range by
up to 30%.
2. Batteries discharge when left uncharged. They can discharge up
to 13% per month
(higher rates in warmer climates) with the key off and much faster
if the key is left on.
3. Batteries can freeze if left uncharged at low ambient
temperatures.
Percent Charged: 100% 50% 0%
Approximate Freezing Point: (-51° C) (-18° C) (-4° C)
