NOTES
Owner’s Manual and Service Guide
To obtain a copy of the limited warranty applicable to the vehicle, call or write a local
Distributor, an authorized Branch or the Warranty Department with vehicle serial number
and manufacturer code.
The use of non Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts may void the warranty.
Overfilling of batteries may void the warranty.
BATTERY PROLONGED STORAGE
All batteries will self discharge over time. The rate of self discharge varies depending on the
ambient temperature and the age and condition of the batteries.
A fully charged battery will not freeze in winter temperatures unless the temperature falls
below -75° F (-60° C).
For winter storage, the batteries must be clean, fully charged and disconnected from any
source of electrical drain, such as the battery charger. Disconnect the battery charger cable
from the vehicle batteries when not charging.
As with all electric vehicles, the batteries must be checked and recharged as required or at a
minimum of 30 day intervals.
Refer to the ‘Prolonged Storage’ section within the BATTERIES AND CHARGING section of
this manual.
