	Standard		Alternate
Green	34.00+		34.50+
Green & Yellow	33.00-33.99		34.00-34.49
Yellow	32.00-32.99		33.50-33.99

Flashing Red/Cutoff	<31.00	<32.50

NOTE: Refer to service manual for selection of alternate cut-off level. Once the low voltage cutout level has been reached (flashing red indicator) the batteries must be FULLY recharged to reset the battery condition indicator. The scrub system will not function until the indicator has been reset.
