OPERATION
BATTERY
METER
See Figure
5.
Since the mower battery is shipped
in
a low charge condi-
tion, the battery must be charged before use. The battery
has 5 LED lights to indicate battery capacity. These lights
will only illuminate when the mower is running.
If 3
GREEN
lights illuminate, the battery
is
charged and ready
for use.
2 green lights are equal
to
50-80% charge, while 1
green light
is
equal
to
30-50% charge.
If the AMBER light illuminates, the battery will soon require
charging. It is recommended that the battery be charged at
this point. The battery is at
5-30% charge when the yellow
light illuminates
If
the
RED
light illuminates and/or flashes at any time, the
battery must be charged IMMEDIATELY before use. There
is less than
5%
of battery charge when the
red
light comes
on.
NOTE: When the
red
light illuminates, you must stop the
mower and charge the battery immediately,
or
it will reduce
the life of the battery.
