NOTE:
It is recommended that the vehicles be plugged in and the electrolyte level maintained throughout the storage

charger cannot remain plugged in, 2) AC power will not be available during extended storage, or 3) Electrolyte
levels will not be maintained. To disconnect batteries for storage, go to step 12.
11. To keep batteries fully charged during storage:
11.1. Plug the battery charger into the car. Leave battery chargers plugged in during storage. The charger will
automatically activate when necessary.
11.2. Check the electrolyte level and charger function monthly to ensure that proper operation is maintained.
Electrolyte Level, Section 15, Page 15-13.
To check charger function, inspect the status indicator lights
on the charger. The charger is functioning properly if the blue light is ON and the triangular light is OFF.
CAUTION
• Be sure to check the batteries and charger status indicators monthly to maintain correct battery water
level and to ensure the charger is operating correctly during storage.
12. If disconnecting the batteries for storage, disconnect the B negative (-) battery cable and secure it in a way that
ensures the cable will not come into contact with battery terminal.
