Cleaning and Storage

Storing the Vehicle

Any time the vehicle will be parked for more than a few hours, follow the recommended
storage procedures:
1. Make any necessary repairs and clean the vehicle. See page 65.
2. Store the vehicle out of the sun in a cool, dry place.
3. Turn the key off.
4. Do not set the park brake.
5. Verify that tire pressure is at specification.
6. Block the wheels to prevent rolling.
7. For short-term storage (less than one month), fully charge the batteries. Leave the
charger connected to maintain a full charge during the storage period.
8. For long-term storage (one to 12 months), store the vehicle with batteries at 50%-70%
SOC. Charge the batteries to 100% SOC at least once during a year of storage.
9. Cover the vehicle with an appropriate vehicle cover for protection.
Tip: Do not use plastic or coated materials. They do not allow enough ventilation to prevent
condensation, and may promote corrosion and oxidation.
