utilization of the battery to prevent fire
and injuries.
• Prevent long-term high-current
discharge of the low-voltage battery.
• The low-voltage battery should be
installed firmly on the vehicle to reduce
vibration.
• Frequently check whether the fixing
clips of the low-voltage battery ports are
firm and in good contact, so as to
prevent sparks and causing explosion of
the low-voltage battery. Oxides and
sulfates produced by fixing clips of the
low-voltage battery must be scraped off
and coated with Vaseline to prevent
further corrosion.
• If the battery leaks fluid, do not touch it
as it may be a strong alkaline electrolyte
from the battery. If your skin or eyes
come into contact with electrolyte, wash
them immediately with plenty of water,
and if possible, use boric acid solution.
Get medical attention as soon as
possible to avoid serious injury.
When the vehicle operates in a cold
area, it is necessary to avoid
complete discharge of the low-
voltage battery to prevent the
electrolyte from freezing.
Battery inspection
This vehicle is equipped with a
maintenance-free low-voltage battery, and
there is no need to add low-voltage battery
solution.
There is a battery status detection
observation hole on the top of the battery,
and the battery status can be judged by
regularly checking the observation hole.
• The color of observation hole is green -
the battery is in good condition
• The color of observation hole is black -
the battery needs to be charged
• The color of observation hole is white -
the battery needs to be replaced
If the color in the observation hole is
colorless, gently tap it with a suitable
tool to discharge bubbles. If the color
in the observation hole does not
change, the battery must be
replaced.
Charging or Replacing the
Battery
Due to natural discharge and loss effect of
specific electrical equipment, the battery
will suffer from gradual loss of power, even
if the vehicle is not used. If the vehicle is
idle for a long time, the battery may run
out and the vehicle cannot enter READY
mode. When the vehicle is running, the
power battery will charge the low-voltage
battery.
The hydrogen gas produced by the battery
is flammable and explosive when it is
charged. Therefore, the following
