STORING VEHICLES WITH A VOLTA SYSTEM
Warning: Do not store the Volta System at low State-of-Charge. The sys-
tem is designed with a limited energy reserve, in case the system is left
on and the low voltage shutdown occurs. This reserve may last for three
months until irreversible damage could occur. Neglecting system main-
tenance and allowing the Energy Storage Pack to come to this state will
result in voiding the warranty.
Warning: Failure to turn off the Volta System before storing your vehicle
long term (greater than 3 months) will cause the Energy Storage Pack(s)
charge to deplete faster, even if all loads on the system are removed,
which can cause permanent damage to the Energy Storage Pack.
Storage methods vary by customer and environment. Also, refer to Tempera-
ture Limits on page 33 for safe storage temperatures.
Long Term Storage (Greater than 3 Months)
Preparations should be made to protect the life and performance of the Energy
Storage Pack when not in use. When leaving the vehicle in storage, turn off the
Volta System by pressing the On/Off pushbutton.
To prepare for long-term storage:
1. Charge the Volta System to greater than 70% SOC as indicated on the
SOC Gauge or Touchscreen.
2. Press the On/Off pushbutton and verify that the pushbutton LED and
SOC gauge/touchscreen turn off, indicating the Volta System is off.
3. Turn on the Volta System every three months to verify the pack is
maintaining a high SOC. If necessary, charge the system to above 70%
SOC before storing the vehicle again.
