Use and maintenance of charger
Chargers are an important part of electric vehicles, and the quality of chargers affects the service life of batteries a lot. The
charger is mainly composed of rectification filter, high voltage switch, voltage exchange, constant voltage and charging control.
This charger features a trickle mode to prevent overcharging. Do not charge the battery for more than 12 hours at a
time, as this may damage the charger. Place the charger in a dry and well-ventilated area when charging. Keep away from
any sources of ignition when charging batteries. Do not cover the charger with anything to avoid fire hazards.
When charging, connect the charger plug with the charging socket properly, and then insert the power plug into the
common power socket. After the charging is completed, the power supply should be unplugged first, and then the output plug
shall be unplugged from the socket of the battery box. Store the charging cable properly or put it in the glove box with the
vehicle.
Warning
1. Chargers must be protected from water and moisture. Store and use them in a dry location and avoid dropping them to
prevent electrical shocks.
2. Leave the charger alone while it is charging. Do not touch, move, disassemble, or tamper with it, as it contains high voltage
current that can cause electric shock injuries.
3. The charger gets hot during charging, it should be kept in a well-ventilated place, and should not be charged near
inflammable and explosive dangerous goods such as carpets and wooden floors to avoid fire or explosion accidents.
4. When charging, the voltage and current of the battery must be consistent with the specifications of the charger, and the
polarity of the output plug of the charger should be consistent with that of the battery pack, otherwise the charger and battery
will be damaged.
5. If the charger’s indicator light stays red for a long time (more than 8 hours) and does not change color, stop the charger
immediately and take it to the service department for inspection.
6. If the charger fails, professional personnel must repair and handle the charger.
