6.2.1 Battery Charging
When not in use, park the vehicle and connect the battery charger. The vehicle’s charging cord is
located inside front panel box.
WARNING
Never charge the batteries in an area
subject to flame or spark.
Do not smoke in the charging area.
Always follow these precautions when charging the batteries:
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Make sure the charging area is well ventilated.
3. Make sure the key is off.
4. Open the hood and any door enclosures or zippers.
5. Always use extension cord with a minimum rating of 20 amps.
6. Inspect the charging cord and extension cord for cracks, loose connections and frayed wiring.
Replace any damaged components promptly.
7. Always connect the vehicle charger to the extension cord first, then plug the cord into a wall
receptacle.
8. Make sure the charger uses a dedicated circuit to prevent overloading. If charging multiple
vehicles, each vehicle should use a dedicated circuit.
Tip: After the batteries have fully recharged, the battery charger will automatically cycle in and out of
the trickle charge mode to maintain the charge.
9. When disconnecting the charger, always disconnect the extension cord from the wall
receptacle first, then disconnect the cord from the vehicle’s charging cord.

NOTE
Before removing the seat to access the batteries, make sure any wire or metal items (including
seat belt latches) remain clear of the battery compartment to avoid causing a short circuit to
the electrical system.
