LI-ION BATTERY AVAILABLE
CHARGE GAUGE
The gauge
䊊
1
indicates the approximate avail-
able Li-ion battery charge to run the vehicle.
Charge the Li-ion battery before the display
reaches the bottom line.
The low battery charge warning light
illu-
minates when the Li-ion battery available charge
gauge is getting low. Charge as soon as it is
convenient, preferably before the display reaches
the bottom line. When the display reaches the
bottom line and the low battery charge light illu-
minates, there is a very small reserve of Li-ion
battery charge remaining.
NOTE:
• The number of segments illuminated on
the Li-ion battery available charge gauge
is determined by the available charge and
the amount of charge the Li-ion battery is
capable of storing at the current tempera-
ture.
• Temperature affects the amount of charge
the Li-ion battery is capable of storing.
The Li-ion battery is capable of storing
less power when the Li-ion battery tem-
perature is cold. The Li-ion battery is ca-
pable of storing more power when the
Li-ion battery temperature is warm. The
number of segments illuminated on the
Li-ion battery available charge gauge can
change based on the amount of power the
Li-ion battery is capable of storing. For
example, when the Li-ion battery be-
comes colder, more segments on the Li-
ion battery available charge gauge illumi-
nate because the available charge is a
greater percentage of the Li-ion battery’s
capability of storing power. When the Li-
ion battery becomes warmer, less seg-
ments on the Li-ion battery available
charge gauge illuminate because the re-
maining energy is a lower percentage of
the Li-ion battery’s capability of storing
power.
