(2.5 cm) Fueling Excessive use of accessories may drain the battery and leave insufficient reserve to start the vehicle. The vehicle uses a combination starter/generator to both start the engine and charge the battery. The engine will not idle; therefore, the battery cannot be charged while the vehicle is stopped. Do not operate accessory items (such as lights) excessively while the vehicle is stopped. The generator is capable of supplying 35 amps; therefore, operation of all accessories could result in the discharge of the battery even though the engine is running and the generator operating. Discharging the battery is known as deep cycling. The battery is not a deep cycle model, but is a starting battery. Multiple deep cycling will result in the premature failure of the battery. If the vehicle battery has become discharged, it must be charged using a 12 volt charger that is rated at 10 amps or less and in accordance with all instructions provided by the manufacturer of the charger.
