More importantly, it takes a few charging cycles (partial draining followed by full recharging) to establish the critical chemical balance that is essential to a deep-cycle battery’s peak performance and long life.

Follow these steps to properly break in your PMV’s new batteries for maximum efficiency and service life.

1.Fully recharge any new battery prior to its initial use. This charging cycle brings the battery up to about 88% of its peak performance level.

2.Operate your new PMV in familiar and safe areas. Drive slowly at first, and do not travel too far from your home or familiar surroundings until you have become accustomed to your PMV’s controls and have properly broken in your PMV’s batteries.

3.Fully recharge the batteries. They should be at over 90% of their peak performance level.

4.Operate your PMV again.

5.Fully recharge the batteries again.

6.After four or five charging cycles, the batteries are able to receive a charge of 100% of their peak performance level and are able to last for an extended period of time.

What about public transportation?

If you intend to use public transportation with your PMV, you must contact the transportation provider in advance to determine their specific requirements.
