GENERAL INFORMATION

This section includes information pertaining to service of the High Frequency battery charger (model number
912-4852). Do not attempt to service a battery charger that has not been properly identified. If a charger can-
not be properly identified, contact your local 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. The charger is programmed with a specific charge algorithm that is
appropriate to the specific battery type used in the vehicle. See Battery Charger Identification on page 2-1.
When the charger AC cord is connected, LED lights on the charger and dash perform start-up self-test (LEDs
light up in sequence).
The charger utilizes sophisticated charge termination criterion to shut off automatically, preventing the possi-
bility of either undercharging or overcharging. The charger accomplishes this by monitoring battery voltage,
charge current, charge time and using strict dV/dt termination criterion.
