If you drive with too low of a charge in
either of the traction batteries, the vehicle
could stop in the middle of trac, and
could also cause accidents and serious
injury.
• Make sure that both traction batteries are
always suciently charged!
If either of the traction batteries is not
suciently charged, gear properties
may change, e.g., the vehicle’s speed or
acceleration behaviour. If the charge is too
low, power supply may even abruptly be
reduced, and the vehicle’s speed may be
limited to 15 km/h.
• Always adapt your speed and driving
style to visibility conditions, the weather,
the road, and trac, as well as the state of
charge of the traction batteries.
WARNING
WARNING
If you leave the vehicle parked for a long
period of time with the traction batteries
uncharged, this could cause irreversible
damage to them. See good battery
charging practises >>> Page. 85.
