VEHICLE CONTROLLER – ELECTRIC VEHICLES

The electric vehicle is equipped with a solid state speed controller. In order to properly service and maintain the solid state controller vehicle, it is necessary to understand the electrical circuitry and the functions of all components in both systems. Therefore, if any repair or servicing needs to be performed, we recommend that it be performed by an authorized Husqvarna distributor/dealer using Husqvarna parts.

CAUT ION

• On all electric vehicles, turn off all accessories before charging batteries.

NOTE: Recycle or dispose of discarded batteries in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations.

Husqvarna electric vehicles use 12-volt, deep-cycle batteries. Automotive batteries should never be used.

New batteries will not deliver their full capabilities until they have been discharged and recharged 20 to 50 times. To obtain the maximum service life from new batteries, restrict vehicles with new batteries to one hour of operation between charges for the first two months vehicle is in service. Batteries should be fully charged before first use of new vehicle, before first use of a vehicle after storage, and before use each day.
