while the vehicle was not in use),
recharge it by slow charging (trickle) for
10 hours.
• If the battery gradually discharges
because of high electrical load while
the vehicle is being used, recharge it at
20-30 A for two hours.

• The battery must be removed from the
vehicle and placed in a well ventilated
area.
• Watch the battery during charging, and
stop or reduce the charging rate if the

charger in the following order:
1. Turn off the battery charger main
switch.
2. Unhook the negative clamp from the
