CHARGING
Charging in Cold Temperatures
To prevent battery damage, the FUV will prevent the
charger from charging the battery at temperatures below
32°F (0°C). See the Cold Weather - Best Practices
section on page97 for more information.
Charging in Hot Temperatures
To prevent battery damage in temperatures greater than
110°F (43°C), the charger reduces its charge current to the
battery. This will result in an increased time to charge. The
hotter the ambient temperature, the greater the effect.
Above a battery temperature of 122°F (50°C), the FUV
will not charge at all. This is a safety feature that protects
the HV Batteries.
NOTE
If your FUV will not take a charge, ensure that the
internal temperature is below 122°F (50°C).
If the FUV has recently been operating near maximum
output and/or in hot conditions it may be too hot to take
a charge. In this case, let the FUV cool off for about 30
minutes and try again.
