ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS: PEDAL-
START GAS VEHICLE
BATTERY STORAGE
See General Warning on page 1-1. Also see DANGER at beginning of Battery topic.
1.
Keep the battery clean and free of corrosion.
See Preventive Maintenance on page 14-33.
2.
The battery cables should be disconnected from the battery so the battery can be connected to the charger. The
battery can be left in the vehicle. Disconnect the negative (–) cable first.
See Disconnecting the Battery –
Gasoline Vehicles, Section 1, Page 1-3.
3.
Fully charge the battery prior to storage.
4.
Store in a cool, dry area. The colder the area in which the battery is stored, the less the battery will self-discharge.
A battery stored at 0 °F (-17.8 °C) will discharge very little over a four-month period. A battery stored at 80 °F
(27 °C) will have to be recharged every few weeks.
5.
Check the state of charge periodically. A battery that is discharged and left in a cold environment can freeze and
crack. If the specific gravity drops below 1.220, the battery should be recharged.
See following WARNING.
WARNING
• If the battery is frozen or the container is bulged, discard battery. A frozen battery can explode.
6.
The frequency of recharging required depends on the temperature of the storage area, but it is recommended
that the battery be monitored for state of charge every month. Also, if the storage area is unheated in a cold
climate and recharging is required, it is recommended that the area be heated to at least 60 °F (16 °C) prior
to charging. The battery will not charge effectively in cold temperatures for the same reasons that it does not
discharge as rapidly in cold temperatures.
CHARGING A DEAD BATTERY
See General Warning on page 1-1. Also see DANGER at beginning of Battery topic.
The vehicle is equipped with a starter/generator. The generator is not designed to charge a dead battery. If the vehicle
battery has become discharged, it must be charged using a properly rated automotive type charger.
See following
WARNING.
WARNING
• Do not jump-start a dead battery using another battery and jumper cables.
