When to Charge Batteries

NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 11.1.

Recharge the batteries frequently. Do not wait until the battery charge is low to recharge. A battery’s life is extended if the charge level is maintained well above a low condition.

The information gauge is the primary source of user feedback. The true state-of-battery-charge notification is as follows:

Any GREEN LED lit: Batteries are at full or well charged.

Only AMBER and RED LEDs lit: Batteries are moderately charged. Recharge before undertaking a long trip.

Only RED LED lit: Battery charge is low. Recharge as soon as possible.

NOTE: Accurate readings are displayed when the joystick is in neutral.
