B. POWER CONSERVE MODE
The Power Conserve Mode is designed to protect the batteries and the motor. Battery
low voltage would coincide with a low charge reading on the BDI gauge on the dash.
When the battery pack has been discharged to 10% remaining power, the controller will
disable the heating and optional AC system to conserve power. At 5%, the controller will
limit the motor to a top speed of about 45 mph. This will allow an increase in range on the
remaining battery power and assist the driver in getting the vehicle to a safe location to
recharge the batteries.
C. TRANSPORTING YOUR VEHICLE
Should you need to transport your WHEEGO vehicle, the best way is to use a car carrier or
a trailer. Secure the vehicle properly to the trailer and tow the trailer at speeds no greater
than 55 mph. Secure any loose items that may be inside the vehicle. You may also use a
tow dolly that lifts the front 2 wheels off of the ground. Do not tow the vehicle on all 4
wheels; this car is different from an internal-combustion vehicle. Towing it on all 4 wheels
affords significant wear and tear on the car as the drive train would be spinning the entire
time the car is towed. Use a trailer, car carrier or tow dolly.
