Low Battery Temp fault

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Check the batteries. Do not charge a frozen battery.

 

 

 

 

(< -25°C)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Charging a frozen battery may present a risk of

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

explosion. Check that the battery type and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

temperature settings match the actual battery.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Allow the battery (or batteries) to warm up to a

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

temperature that is above freezing before charging.
