NOTICE
ECA17451
Improper charging can damage the
battery and built-in battery charger.
Do not charge in a place ex- posed to direct sunlight or near
a heater.

Do not charge when there is risk
of thunderstorms or lightning.
Electrical surges could cause
damage.

Do not use the AC outlet of a car
or generator for charging the
battery as this could cause amalfunction.
Park the vehicle on a flat, stable sur-
face near a grounded electrical outlet
with residual-current device (RCD) pro-
tection. The area must be dry and, if
necessary, sheltered to prevent rain
water or other moisture from wetting
the vehicle, charging cord, or outlet.
The environment affects the duration of
battery charging. For optimum charg-
ing, charge the battery out of direct sun-
light in an ambient temperature of 15 C
– 25 C.
TIPAlthough charging between 15 C – 25
 C provides the best results, the battery
can be charged within an ambient tem-
perature range of –5 C – 50 C. A de-
pleted battery cannot be charged if
ambient temperature is below 0 C.
Examples of recommended charg-
ing locations
A cool, shaded and well-ventilated
place.
A place that does not fall below –5 C
overnight.
