Battery Storage and Disposal
BATTERY PROLONGED STORAGE
Batteries discharge over time. The rate of discharge changes according
to the ambient temperature, the age and condition of the batteries.
Completely charged batteries will not freeze in winter temperatures
unless the temperature is less than -75°F ( - 60°C).
For winter storage, the batteries must be clean, completely charged
and disconnected from any electrical drain.
The battery charger can remain connected to the vehicle to keep a full
charge on the batter- batteries while the charger is connected to an
active electrical supply. The batteries must be checked and charged
again as required or at a minimum of 30-day intervals.
Check and keep correct fluid level in all battery cells during the
storage period.
Correct fluid level is necessary for maximum battery performance.
BATTERY DISPOSAL
Lead-acid batteries are recyclable. Return discarded batteries to
distributor, manufacturer or lead smelter for recycling. For neutralized
spills, put residue in acid-resistant containers with absorbent material
such as sand. Dispose in accordance with local, state and federal
regulations for acid and lead compounds. Contact local or state
environmental officials for the disposal information.
