When to Charge Batteries
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 11.1.
Recharge the batteries frequently. Do not wait until the battery charge is low to recharge.
A battery’s life is extended if the charge level is maintained well above a low condition.
The information gauge is the primary source of user feedback. The true
state-of-battery-charge notification is as follows:
• Any GREEN LED lit: Batteries are at full or well charged.
• Only AMBER and RED LEDs lit: Batteries are moderately charged. Recharge before
undertaking a long trip.
• Only RED LED lit: Battery charge is low. Recharge as soon as possible.
NOTE: Accurate readings are displayed when the joystick is in neutral.
