Safe Operation Instructions

Our vehicles are designed for simple operations. However, please make sure to observe the following safe operation instructions. As with any new vehicle, always familiarize yourself with its controls. As well as perform checks on the battery, tires (recommended tire pressure is 30 psi), body/chassis, brakes, parking brake, and steering prior to operating the vehicle.

Always ensure that the key is removed before performing any of the above checks.

• Only authorized people should drive this vehicle, and from the driver's side only.
• Do not drive this vehicle on any public roads before it is registered and has the license plate attached.
• Only drive this vehicle where you are allowed by law or local regulations.
• Do not overload the vehicle, otherwise, the motor may be damaged, or the vehicle will lose control putting the driver and passengers in danger.
• Do not operate the vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
• Do not attempt to go uphill/slopes beyond its grade ability.
• Do not pass other vehicles at crossroads, blind areas, or any dangerous conditions.
• ALWAYS engage the parking brake when getting out of your vehicle.

Storing and Charging

If the vehicle needs to be stored for an extended period of time, perform the following actions:

• Fully charge the battery system
• Turn the "Tow/Run" switch to the "Tow" position.
• Remove the key and keep it in a safe place.
• Ensure each tire is reading 30 psi.
• Verify each battery is filled to the proper lever with distilled water (if using lead acid batteries) and all cable connections are secure.
• Clean the body, seats, battery box, and chassis.
• If storing outdoors, cover the vehicle with a storage cover.
• Plug in the onboard smart charger and leave it plugged in.
• Make sure to check the battery water level at least once a month and lubricate at least every six months.
• Monitor the battery connections and cables for corrosion, remove with soda water if necessary.

Maintenance

The appropriate care must be used when performing maintenance, service, or accessory installation. Only trained technicians should service or repair the vehicle and/or battery charging system. Anyone doing even simple repairs or services should have knowledge and experience in electrical and mechanical repairs.

• When maintaining the vehicle or batteries, do not wear loose clothing or conductive jewelry such as rings, watches, and brackets.
• Insulated tools need to be used when working near the battery or power connections to prevent the cart from short-circuiting.
• Before working under the cart, make sure the parking brake is on, the cart is switched into the "Tow" position, and the key is removed from the ignition.
• Please keep all signs, warnings, and instructions provided by the manufacturer clear and untampered.

Lead Acid Batteries

Our standard vehicles are equipped with lead-acid batteries. The quantity of batteries will vary depending on the cart model. See Figure 1 and Figure 2 below for distinction.

Figure 1. Beyond 4 Passenger witha total of 6 lead acid batteries. Batteries are located in the 2nd row storage, underneath the flip seat.

Figure 2. Beyond 6 Passenger with a total of 8 lead acid batteries. Batteries are located in the Ist row storage, underneath the flip seat.

Battery electrolyte is poisonous and dangerous and may cause severe burns and injury.
Always wear gloves and protective eye gear when working around battery electrolytes.
KEEP OUT THE REACH OF CHILDREN.

Lead Acid Battery Maintenance

Vehicles with lead-acid batteries will need routine maintenance at least twice a month. We recommend checking weekly if the cart is being used frequently. Checklist for routine maintenance includes:

• Cleaning terminals and ensuring the surface is free of moisture and debris.
• Checking terminals and securing supportive hardware to batteries.
• Recharging batteries after every use.
• Checking water levels and distributing distilled fluid periodically.

Neglecting routine maintenance to your batteries can impact the longevity lead acid has to offer. It's important to be aware that improper management can cause further damage to your vehicle.

Before performing any maintenance to the batteries, it's essential to cut all power to the vehicle. To turn off the power supply, make sure the cart is in park, turn the Tow/Run switch to "Tow", and remove the key from the ignition. Once this has been completed, routine maintenance may begin.
Always keep sparks and Flames away from batteries including smoking. If you come in direct contact with the acid in the batteries, flush with large amounts of water.

Warranty Claims: Contact Continental Battery Systems Customer Experience (844) 935-1186 for any warranty questions/claims.
For additional questions and customer support, please contact your local dealer or Bintelli manufacturer.

Cleaning

Batteries can attract dust, dirt, and grime. Keeping them clean will help you spot signs of trouble if they appear, and avoid problems associated with grime.

Checking the terminal and nuts

The connection of the battery should always be kept in good condition. Please check every week whether any battery cable terminals or nuts have become loose in order to prevent any spark or damage to terminals. Check the battery cables for damages weekly, and replace any damaged battery cables immediately.
Do not place any objects on the battery and do not connect the positive pole to the negative pole. This may cause a short circuit, or dangerous spark or may cause damage to the battery or the user.

Recharging

Important for monitoring accurate battery data. Download the Lester app and follow the prompts to see the state of charge your batteries are reading and any other charging inquiries.

• The battery should be recharged daily AND after the vehicle is used. Any delay in the recharging will have a negative effect on the battery. Lead-acid batteries do not have a memory and therefore do not need to be fully discharged before recharging.
• Always keep the cart on charge unless specified in the charging link.
• Only use a dedicated 20 amp circuit when charging the batteries.
• If using an extension cord, make sure it's a 10/12 gauge only. No more than 25 ft.

Curtis Meter

A
nother way to check lead acid battery charge is with the Curtis Meter.
This resource is located on your dash, to the left of the steering wheel. Although this does not give you an exact percentage reading as the lester app does, it allows you to monitor the vehicle's current state of charge.
Please make sure the battery is recharged BEFORE the battery power meter shows 20% or less. An overcharged battery will have a short service life.

Watering

Distilled water should always be added after fully charging. Before charging, there should be enough water to cover the plates. If the battery has been discharged (partially or fully), the water levels should be above the plates. Keeping the water at the correct level after a full charge, you will not have to worry about the water level at a different state of charge. Do not let the plates get exposed to air, this will cause them to corrode.

Lithium Batteries

Lithium batteries are sealed and essentially maintenance free. While there is no fluid to add to the battery pack as you would a deep cycle battery, you still need to periodically check the cables and connections for tightness, ensure they are free of corrosion, recharge, and comprehend temperature and storage conditions.


Only licensed technicians should be performing maintenance on batteries with the exception of checking and cleaning terminals while the batteries and vehicle are fully powered off. Please contact your local dealer or Eco Support for anything other than routine battery care.

Features for Users

Power Button
Located on the side of the lithium battery. This feature is used for powering the batteries. If the power is not on, the cart will not run. This component is also important when performing maintenance to turn power off. For more details, visit the user link found in the Lithium Manual section.
There are different variations of lithium ion features in the Beyond editions. It's important to note that the state of charge feature will change depending on the charger in the cart.
For carts with a supported Eco charger, the state of charge meter is the EB LCD meter.

State of Charge Meter- ECO charger
Located on the front dash of your vehicle. This feature reads your battery voltage and charge. Just as a fuel gauge in a car, the State of Charge meter (SOC meter) lets you know in a percentage value how much power you have left in your batteries before you need to recharge. For more details, visit the user link found in the Lithium Manual section.
For Lithium batteries with the supportive charger being Lester, the state of charge reading will be on the speedometer LCD meter.

State of Charge- Lester Charger
Located on the upper left hand side of the speedometer display. This feature reads your current percentage left in the lithium battery. For more details on your lithium battery reading, download the lester app found in the Recharging section in lead acid.

Lithium Battery Care

Lithium Check:

• Cleaning cables and ensuring the surface is free of moisture and debris.
• Checking cables and securing connections to Battery.
• Recharging batteries.
• Monitoring inactivity, long term storage, and colder temperatures.

Although Lithium batteries do not require the same type of routine maintenance as Lead Acid, it is still strongly recommended to use the proper suggested care to maintain their efficiency. This includes the Lithium Checklist and more detailed information noted in the user manual.
It's important to be aware that improper management can void warranties and cause further issues with the service of your vehicle.

Regular Maintenance Checklist

Client Responsibilities

Batteries – Battery fluid must be checked at least once monthly for lead acid. Use distilled water only. Do not overfill.
Battery Cables – Tighten battery cables per battery manufacturer instructions located on batteries.
Failure to tighten once a month could result in damage to the batteries. BEFORE placing the vehicle into service, please check all battery cables and tighten as they may become loose due to turbulence in shipping.
Battery Lock Washers - Ensure a qualified technician maintains lock washers on all battery posts when replacement batteries are needed.
Charger Power Cord – Do not remove the manufacturer tag on the power cord as doing so will void the warranty. Always unplug the charger before turning the vehicle on.
Charging – Each charger must have a dedicated circuit with 20 amps. The vehicle should be left plugged in when not in use. The charger will trickle charge at 80% only when needed. Improper charging will lower the range.
Extension Cords – We do not recommend using an extension cord to charge. If you do use one, it must be heavy-duty (10 gauge) as the extension cord will determine how many amps the charger will receive.
Parking Brake – All vehicles have a parking brake (hand or foot). Driving with a parking brake engaged will damage the motor and braking systems and can create a fire hazard. Always disengage the parking brake before driving.
Storage – Vehicles should NOT be left out in the elements 24/7. We recommend storing covered in a garage environment in order to preserve the integrity of the paint and fit/finish of the vehicle.
Tires – Must be inflated to proper capacity. Upon delivery, please check all lug nuts and tighten them as they may become loose due to turbulence in shipping. Additionally, check lug nut tightness once a month.
Tow Switch – Must be pointed to "Run" and not "Tow" to operate. Must be in "Tow" position if towing.
Warranty (ECO) registration- All vehicles with an eco battery must register within 90 days of purchase to honor the 8 year warranty. If you do not register your batteries, the warranty will only be valid for a year.
