temperature exceeds the range specified in the
1.
Temperatures outside of this range will damage your batteries. High temperatures
during storage, especially at a high state of charge, reduces the life of the
batteries.
• When storing the machine for more than 10 days, ensure that the machine is in a cool
and dry location, out of sunlight, rain, and wet conditions.
• If you are using the machine in hot conditions or in strong, direct sunlight, the batteries
may overheat. If this happens, a high-temperature alert will appear on the display and the
machine will slow down.
Immediately drive the machine to a cool location out of the sun, turn off the machine, and
allow the batteries to cool fully before resuming operation.
Charging the Batteries
Contact with water while charging the machine could cause electric shock, causing
injury or death.
• Do not handle the plug with wet hands or while standing in water.
• Do not charge the batteries in the rain or in wet conditions.
A damaged charger cord can cause an electrical shock or a fire.
Thoroughly inspect the charger cord before charging the machine. If the cord is
damaged, do not charge the machine until you obtain a replacement.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this charger has a 3-prong grounded plug (type B). If the
plug does not fit into the wall receptacle, other grounded plug types are available; contact an
Authorized Service Dealer.
Do not change the charger plug in any way.
Check the charger cord periodically for holes or cracks in the insulation. Do not use a
damaged cord. Do not run the cord through standing water or wet grass.
