extended period of time. Under this condition, the alternator may not be
able to recharge the batteries. A battery charger will be required for
recharging.
Before using a battery charger, an attempt can be made to recharge the
batteries using the engine alternator by first starting the vehicle and letting
the engine run. See "Slave Starting" instructions on page 70.
