BATTERY CHARGING CORD AND PORT
The battery charging port is located above the left rear fender inside the charge port door. The
charge port door release lever is located just inside the driver’s door on the floor. Pull up on the
release lever to open the charge port door. The charge port accepts the WHEEGO standard
120-Volt 15-Amp GFCI protected charge cord that came with your vehicle. If your vehicle has
the dual charger option installed, you will also have a power cord for 240-Volt 20-Amp power
input.
After turning the vehicle
OFF, connect the power
cord to the charging
port by lining up the
pins with the holes,
pushing it straight into
the receptacle and then
plugging the other end
into a 120-Volt 15-Amp
household
receptacle
(or a 240-Volt 20-Amp
receptacle) to begin
charging.
There are two LED lights in the charge port. The bottom one is for standard 120-Volt 15-Amp
charging. The top one is only used if you have the dual charger option for 240-Volt 20-Amp
power. The green LED light will flash when power supply is good and the car is charging. The
green LED will stay lit when the charging cycle has completed.
You may use a UL listed 120-Volt 3-wire grounded extension cord if needed. Use a 14-gauge
cord for lengths 25 feet or less and a 12-gauge cord for lengths 50 feet or less. Extension
cords are not recommended for use with a 240-Volt power cord.
WARNING
Use only the correct gauge extension cords as listed above. An incorrect gauge extension
cord could result in fire or heat damage.
BATTERY DISPOSAL
AGM sealed lead-acid batteries are recyclable. Return whole scrap batteries to a dealer,
distributor, manufacturer, or lead smelter for recycling. If a battery becomes punctured and
leaks, neutralize the spill by placing residue in acid-resistant containers with absorbent material,
sand, or earth and dispose in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations for acid and
lead compounds. Contact your local and/or state environmental officials regarding disposal
information.
BRAKES AND FLUID LEVEL
The vehicle is equipped with a four-wheel hydraulic
braking system. The fluid level of your brake system is a
very important safety component. The brake fluid reservoir
is located under the hood next to the accessory battery. If
the fluid level is below the “MAX” mark, add DOT-3 brake
fluid to the reservoir as needed.
Inspections of the front and rear brakes should be performed
according to the maintenance schedule. Brake pads and
shoes should be replaced before the thickness is reduced
to 1.0mm.
The parking brake is adjustable and should be checked
periodically by a trained service technician as shown in the
vehicle maintenance schedule.
