Battery Charger – Electric Vehicle

CHARGING BATTERIES
NOTE: When temperatures fall below 65 °F (18.3 °C), batteries charged in unheated areas should be
placed on charge as soon as possible after use. Batteries are warmest immediately after use, while
cold batteries require more time to fully charge.
• Turf 1, Turf 2, Carryall 1, and Carryall 2 (stationary charger):
Insert charger AC plug into a dedicated AC receptacle that is properly grounded and wired in accor-
dance with the National Electric Code and all local codes and ordinances. Then insert charger DC plug
into the vehicle receptacle. Charger will turn on two to ten seconds later
(Figure 24) .
• Carryall 6 (onboard charger):
Insert the onboard charger AC plug into a dedicated AC receptacle that is properly grounded and wired
in accordance with the National Electric Code and all local codes and ordinances. The charger will turn
on two to ten seconds later.
Club Car battery chargers interact with the vehicle onboard computer. The computer records the amount of
energy consumed during vehicle use. While the charger is plugged in, the vehicle’s control circuit is locked
out, preventing operation of the vehicle, as well as the possibility of subsequent damage to the charger and
vehicle.
Once the lockout is actuated, the charger turns on. The onboard computer then records the amount of energy
being returned to the batteries. When the optimum amount of energy needed to replenish the batteries is
returned, the charger will turn off. The control circuit lockout remains activated until the charger plug is discon-
nected from the vehicle.
PowerDrive and IQ Plus battery chargers are not interchangeable, nor can they be used with other Club Car
models or vehicles made by other manufacturers. Charger compatibility for each vehicle is as follows:
• IQ System vehicles use the PowerDrive charger.
• IQ Plus vehicles use the IQ Plus charger.
As long as the charger is allowed to shut off by itself, the batteries will be fully charged. Overcharging and
undercharging will normally be prevented.
CAUT ION
• Only IQ Plus chargers should be used with IQ Plus vehicles. Long-term use of a PowerDrive
battery charger with IQ Plus vehicles will damage the batteries.
