7.8 CHARGING THE ONBOARD LI-ION BATTERY
WARNING!
The improper use of a lithium-ion battery can cause battery
damage and/or endanger personal safety. Please read carefully,
use correctly and take precautions. Do not expose to extreme
temperatures. Users must not dismantle or service. Do not
dispose in household trash. Dispose and transport according to
local lithium-ion battery guidelines.
If your BG4500i is equipped with an electric start it will also feature a battery
charging port (charging cord sold separately, you can find the charging cord on our
part store at www.benchmark.midlandpowerinc.com). When storing your generator
for an extended period of time the battery will self-discharge, which could cause
permanent damage or even complete failure of the battery.
To prolong the battery life, it should be charged every 2 months while in storage. A
fully charged battery will read ~11.5 Volts. To top up, plug the charger into a
standard 120V wall outlet and the charging port on your BG4500i for ~2 hours (do
not overcharge or leave charging permanently) to slowly recharge the battery and
prolong its life. It is best practice to store your li-ion battery around 50% state of
charge to prolong its life.
1.
Plug the charging cord into a 120V wall outlet.
2.
Plug the other end into the charging port of the generator.
NOTE
The onboard electric start battery recharges while the generator is
running.
Do not overcharge the battery or leave charging permanently.
Check the voltage with a digital voltmeter and top up the battery every
two months while in storage.
