See General Warnings on page 1-1. WATER QUALITY Water purity is the most important factor in the performance and life span of the vehicle batteries. Club Car is, therefore, placing increased importance on battery water quality. Outlined below are four battery watering procedures, grouped into two categories: Preferred and Alternate methods.
Replace filter immediately if the red light comes ON indicating service is required. The following replacement filter is available from Club Car Service Parts: — Use filter P/N 104005901 for Deionizer Systems P/N's 105166801, 104006001, and AM10974.
Battery Care BATTERIES: IQ PLUS ELECTRIC VEHICLES Log. Use these decals to record filter replacement activity and fleet inspection activity. For convenience, both decals have a QR code for ordering replacement filters. Seasonal Maintenance Water supplies must be drained and stored in an empty state if they will be exposed to freezing temperatures. Failure to do so can cause permanent damage.
• Do not overfill the batteries. NOTE: A battery watering gun or bottle (CC P/N AM10818) is available from your authorized Club Car dealer. The battery hold-downs should be tight enough so that the batteries do not move while the vehicle is in motion, but not so tight as to crack or buckle the battery case.
Battery Care BATTERIES: IQ PLUS ELECTRIC VEHICLES After use, charge the batteries. The batteries should never be left discharged any longer than absolutely necessary (do not leave discharged overnight). 1. Level Indicator 2. Cap 3. Plates Maintain electrolyte level from at least 1/2 inch (13 mm) above plates to 1/4 inch (6 mm) below level indicator.
A deionizer for vehicles with SPWS, Club Car Part Number 105166801 is available from Service Parts (DC powered water quality indicator light). Replacement cartridge: 104005901. Bottled distilled water, with hand pump, Club Car Part Number 104006101, is recommended for private consumer applications.
Page 230
Single Point Watering System (SPWS) BATTERIES: IQ PLUS ELECTRIC VEHICLES • Do not use a longer garden hose than provided with the System (20 feet or 6 meters), as a decrease in water pressure can overfill the batteries and damage the refill system. Before screwing the hose-end assembly (3) onto the opposite end of the water hose, check the screen filter (4) inside the end of the assembly to make sure it is clean (Figure 14-4).
BATTERIES: IQ PLUS ELECTRIC VEHICLES Battery Storage 2829 2830 Figure 14-6 Dust Cap Figure 14-7 Connecting Hose-end Assembly to Battery Fill Connector The red flow indicator balls should swirl, indicating that the batteries are being filled. See following CAUTION. CAUTION •...
Deep-Discharge BATTERIES: IQ PLUS ELECTRIC VEHICLES DEEP-DISCHARGE Never discharge batteries to the point the vehicle will no longer operate. This will considerably shorten the cycle life of the batteries, and may permanently damage the batteries. It is possible the batteries will not accept a charge if they are completely discharged.
If a charger cannot be properly identified, contact your local authorized Club Car dealer or distributor. The High Frequency Battery Charger functions as an integral part of the vehicles' electrical system and will not work with other electric vehicles.
General Information QUIQ HIGH FREQUENCY CHARGER HOW TO IDENTIFY CHARGE ALGORITHM NUMBER The algorithm numbers offered can be found in See Battery Charger Algorithms on page 15-2. The charger can display its algorithm number by initiating Algorithm Display Mode. To enter Algorithm Display Mode, do the following: Disconnect the AC cord from the power outlet.
QUIQ HIGH FREQUENCY CHARGER General Information HOW TO CHANGE THE ALGORITHM Set the Run/Tow switch to TOW. If equipped, disconnect the DC/DC converter connector. Disconnect the AC cord. Disconnect the main positive (+) battery wire. Wait for 1 to 1.5 minutes. Connect the AC cord.
– Do not attempt to charge frozen batteries or batteries with bulged cases. Discard the battery in accordance with all environmental laws or return to an authorized Club Car dealer. Frozen batteries can explode.

Vehicles should be restricted to 40 to 50 amp hours of discharge between charges until the batteries have been properly seasoned (20 to 50 charge cycles). For maximum battery life, Club Car recommends that electric vehicles always be recharged after 40 to 50 amp hours of discharge or each night in order to avoid deep discharging the batteries.
Any charger not functioning correctly should be removed from use until it is properly repaired. This will prevent further damage to the vehicle and avoid the possibility of injury due to unsafe conditions. Contact your local Club Car distributor/dealer to perform all repairs and semiannual and annual periodic service WARNING •...
