CAUT ION
• Batteries in a low state of charge will freeze at low temperatures.
• To avoid exposing electrical components to moisture and subsequent damage, do not use
any type of pressure washing or steam cleaning equipment to wash the vehicle.
PREPARING THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE FOR EXTENDED STORAGE
1. Unload the vehicle so that the tires are supporting only the weight of the vehicle.
2. Fully charge batteries. See Charging Batteries on page 29.
3. Batteries should be clean and free of corrosion. Wash tops and terminals of batteries with a solution of
baking soda and water (1 cup (237 mL) baking soda per 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water). Rinse solution off bat-
teries. Do not allow this solution to enter the batteries. Be sure terminals are tight. Let the terminals dry
and then coat them with Battery Terminal Protector Spray (CCI P/N 1014305).
4. Store vehicle in a cool, dry place. This will minimize battery self-discharge.
5. Adjust tires to recommended tire pressure. See Specifications – DS Golf, DS 4-Passenger, and
Handyman on page 33 or Specifications – Lynx 4-passenger and Box Bed Vehicle on page 34.
6. Perform semiannual periodic lubrication. See Periodic Lubrication Schedule on page 24.
7. Thoroughly clean front body, rear body, seats, battery compartment, and underside of vehicle.
8. Do not engage the park brake. Chock the wheels to prevent the vehicle from rolling.
9. Keep batteries fully charged during storage.
• PowerDrive Chargers: Leave PowerDrive Chargers plugged in during storage. The onboard com-
puter will automatically activate the charger when necessary. If charger cannot remain plugged in, or
AC power will not be available during extended storage, disconnect the batteries for storage
(Figure 1,
Page 9) .
CAUT ION
• Be sure to check the vehicle and charger monthly to ensure the charger is operating correctly
during storage.
RETURNING THE STORED ELECTRIC VEHICLE TO SERVICE
1. If necessary, connect batteries and tighten terminals to 110 in-lb (16.4 N·m).
