CLEANING
Be mindful that there are sensitive electronics in your battery when cleaning your golf cart.
Although your lithium battery is well sealed, DO NOT CLEAN BY PRESSURE WASHING.
Pressure washing can lead to premature damage to the lid seal of the battery , and is not
covered under the warranty policy.
The recommended procedure for cleaning your battery is blowing off
with a leaf blower, or wiping it off with a clean damp cloth.
NEVER USE CHEMICALS OF ANY SORT TO CLEAN YOUR BATTERY.

COLD WEATHER

Your battery is equipped with a temperature sensor that will shut it down in
temperatures below -20°f. This feature protects the battery from cell damage
caused by excessively low operating temperatures.
While your battery will discharge down to -20°F , it will not accept any type of
charge below 32°F. This includes plug in charging as well as regenerative charging
from your carts motor controller.
It is not recommend to drive a golf cart equipped with regenerative charging/braking systems when
the overnight low temperature is under 32°F. Doing so may cause the battery to enter self-protection
mode and can lead to braking system faults on certain carts.
It is important to note that the above temperatures are in reference to the core battery temperature
and not the ambient air temperature. Your actual core battery temperature could be drastically
different from the ambient air temperature as the battery will increase and decrease in temperature
at a much slower rate than ambient air temperature.
As with all batteries, you may notice a decrease in performance and range in colder temperatures.
This is normal and expected. Some decreases in performance may include shorter run times, slightly
slower acceleration, and larger than normal voltage drops.
