A fully charged battery can last for three
hours of continuous use.
WARNING
Before returning the battery to the vehicle, ensure
that the vehicle is powered off.
CAUTION
Identify the positive and negative terminals according
to the charging stand contact pins.
NOTE
Due to the characteristics of lithium batteries,
battery capacity is reduced in low-temperature
environments.
Servicing the battery
Never over-discharge the battery
Never allow the battery charge to be deple-
ted until the truck cannot move before re-
charging. This shortens the battery life.
Once the low battery charge symbol ap-
pears, charge the battery immediately.
Servicing the battery
The battery must be kept dry and clean. Ter-
minals and cable lugs must be tightened,
cleaned and a small amount of specialised
grease applied. Batteries with non-insulated
terminals must be covered with a non-slip in-
sulating mat.
NOTE
To prevent static electricity from causing an
explosion, never use a dry cloth or fabric to
wipe the surface of the battery.
Pull out the mains plug.
Wipe it with a damp cloth.
Wear protective eyewear, rubber shoes and
rubber gloves.
Battery waste disposal
The disposal of used batteries must strictly
comply with national environmental protection
regulations or current waste disposal regula-
tions. Waste disposal must also be performed
in strict compliance with manufacturer instruc-
tions.
The acid in the battery is toxic and corrosive.
Therefore, you must wear protective clothing
and goggles before performing any operations
on the battery. Avoid direct contact with bat-
tery acid.
If battery acid accidentally touches clothing or
skin or gets into the eyes, you must immedi-
ately rinse the contact area with plenty of wa-
ter. A prompt medical examination is required
in the event of contact with the skin or eyes.
Spilled battery acid must be neutralised imme-
diately.
