AMBIENT TEMPERATURE IMPLICATIONS ON
BATTERIES
• Battery range decreases as ambient temperature decreases. This can affect
the range by up to 30%.
• 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.
• Batteries can freeze if left uncharged at low ambient temperatures.

CHARGER OPERATION
Open the hood and any door enclosures or zippers. This will decrease charger
temperature, which allows it to operate more efficiently, and shorten charge
times. See pages 61-62 for charging procedures.
1. Always use extension cords with the appropriate ratings for the country in
which it is used. In North America this is a UL rating. The cords must also be
rated for the conditions in which they are used, such as being rated for
protection from oil in a garage or workshop environment.
2. Use the proper cord wire gauges for the cord length used.
