Explosive mixtures of Hydrogen gas are
present within battery cells at all times. Do
not work with or charge battery in an area
where open flames (including gas furnace
or water heater pilots), sparks, cigarettes,
or any other sources of combustion are
present. Always provide ample ventilation
in rooms where batteries are being
charged. Failure to do so may result in
severe bodily injury and/or property
damage.
CHARGING YOUR VEHICLE
Battery electrolyte is poisonous and
dangerous. It contains sulfuric acid. Avoid
contact with skin eyes or clothing. Wear
rubber gloves and safety glasses while
servicing batteries. DO NOT INGEST! This
may result in severe bodily injury.
The key switch must be in the “OFF” position
when charging the batteries. Failure to turn
the key switch “OFF” may result in damage to
the vehicles electrical system.
To obtain the maximum battery life:
Charge the batteries only after they reach a normal
discharge as indicated on the Battery Status Indicator
(BSI). Failure to follow this guideline could result in the
batteries entering an overcharge state, which will reduce
the life of the batteries. If you find it necessary to charge
the batteries before they are completely discharged we
recommend waiting until they are discharged a minimum
of 25% to reduce the possibility of overcharging. Refer
to Vehicle Controls in this section for information on how
to read the BSI.
Do not discharge the batteries beyond a normal
discharge as indicated on the BSI. Refer to Vehicle
Controls in this section for information on how to read
the BSI.
Check the battery electrolyte once a week. Do not charge
the batteries if the battery electrolyte is low. Charging
when the electrolyte is low will damage the batteries and
shorten their life-span. Only authorized personnel should
perform battery maintenance including maintaining the
battery electrolyte level. Refer to Section
Maintenance,
Service and Repair
for battery maintenance
information.
Do not interrupt the charging cycle. When the charger is
plugged in, allow it to turn off before disconnecting.
Interrupting the charging cycle could lead to overcharging
or discharging the batteries too deep. Both circumstances
will shorten the life of the batteries.
New Battery Break in
New batteries require a break in period of up to 40-cycles.
The batteries will not have their full capacity during this
break in period and may require longer charging times.
Charging Time
Charging time will vary depending on the type charger
used and the size of the battery. Refer to the
documentation provided with the charger for more
information.
Charger Interlock
This vehicle is equipped with a charger interlock that will
prevent operation of the vehicle when a charger is
connected to the charging receptacle.
