OPERATING PROCEDURES Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers. the charge is less than 80% and a LONG flash if the charge is greater than 80%. If the charger's LED is a steady GREEN the batteries are fully charged and the charger may be unplugged, although not necessary. The charger may be left plugged in for long periods of time to maintain the batteries charge level. If a fault occurred anytime during the charging the charger's LED will quickly flash RED. The specific fault is indicated by the number of RED flashes that occur, there will be a pause and then the flashes will repeat again. There are several possible conditions that will generate errors. Some errors will require human intervention to first resolve the problem and then reset the charger by unplugging the DC cord from the vehicle. If the AC voltage is interrupted and restored, the charger will turn back on automatically. 4 LED Operation Codes: SHORT GREEN FLASH = less than 80% charged LONG GREEN FLASH = more than 80% charged SOLID GREEN = 100% charged RED FLASH = fault code LED Fault Codes: RED FLASH: Light turns on briefly, but does not flash after that - check for valid AC voltage. ONE RED FLASH: One flash, a pause and then again one flash and a pause - Charge Enable Fault: poor contact in the DC connector or dirty contacts or Battery Temperature Fault: battery temperature is greater than 122° F (50° C) or less than 14° F (-10° C). TWO RED FLASHES: Two flashes, a pause and then again two flashes and a pause - Battery Voltage Fault: Battery pack is less than 48.0 Volts or more than 67.2 Volts. Battery pack is too discharged or over charged for the charger to work. THREE RED FLASHES: Three flashes, a pause and then again three flashes and a pause - Battery Charge Time-out: Charge time exceeded 24 hours. This may indicate a problem with the battery pack or that the charger output current was severely reduced due to high ambient temperatures. FOUR RED FLASHES: Four flashes, a pause and then again four flashes and a pause - Battery Fault: Charge time exceeded. This indicates a problem with the battery pack voltage not reaching the required nominal level within the maximum time allowed. SIX RED FLASHES: Six flashes, a pause and then again six flashes and a pause - Charger Fault: An internal fault has been detected. If this fault is displayed again after unplugging the charger's DC power cord and plugging it back in, the charger must be taken to a qualified service center. To prevent a physical hazard that could result in an electrical shock or electrocution, be sure that the charger plug is not damaged and is inserted into a grounded receptacle. The power (AC) cord is equipped with a grounded plug. Do not attempt to pull out, cut or bend the ground post. The charging (DC) cord is equipped with a polarized connector that fits into a matching receptacle on the vehicle. The receptacle is located on the driver side of the vehicle just below the seat bottom. Charger Receptacle 4- 6

the charge is less than 80% and a LONG flash if the charge is greater than 80%. If the charger’s LED is a steady
GREEN the batteries are fully charged and the charger may be unplugged, although not necessary. The charger may
be left plugged in for long periods of time to maintain the batteries charge level.
If a fault occurred anytime during the charging the charger’s LED will quickly flash RED. The specific fault is indi-
cated by the number of RED flashes that occur, there will be a pause and then the flashes will repeat again. There
are several possible conditions that will generate errors. Some errors will require human intervention to first resolve
the problem and then reset the charger by unplugging the DC cord from the vehicle.
If the AC voltage is interrupted and restored, the charger will turn back on automatically.
LED Operation Codes:
SHORT GREEN FLASH = less than 80% charged
LONG GREEN FLASH = more than 80% charged
SOLID GREEN = 100% charged
RED FLASH = fault code
LED Fault Codes:
RED FLASH: Light turns on briefly, but does not flash after that - check for valid AC voltage.
ONE RED FLASH: One flash, a pause and then again one flash and a pause - Charge Enable Fault: poor con-
tact in the DC connector or dirty contacts or Battery Temperature Fault: battery temperature is greater than
122° F (50° C) or less than 14° F (-10° C).
TWO RED FLASHES: Two flashes, a pause and then again two flashes and a pause - Battery Voltage Fault:
Battery pack is less than 48.0 Volts or more than 67.2 Volts. Battery pack is too discharged or over charged for
the charger to work.
THREE RED FLASHES: Three flashes, a pause and then again three flashes and a pause - Battery Charge
Time-out: Charge time exceeded 24 hours. This may indicate a problem with the battery pack or that the char-
ger output current was severely reduced due to high ambient temperatures.
FOUR RED FLASHES: Four flashes, a pause and then again four flashes and a pause - Battery Fault: Charge
time exceeded. This indicates a problem with the battery pack voltage not reaching the required nominal level
within the maximum time allowed.
SIX RED FLASHES: Six flashes, a pause and then again six flashes and a pause - Charger Fault: An internal
fault has been detected. If this fault is displayed again after unplugging the charger’s DC power cord and plug-
ging it back in, the charger must be taken to a qualified service center.
To prevent a physical hazard that could result in an electrical shock or electrocution, be sure that
the charger plug is not damaged and is inserted into a grounded receptacle.
