Handling and Maintenance
Storage:
- For storage over one month, place the battery in a dry and ventilated room that is 32°F~95°F (0°C~35°C).
- Do not store near corrosive material, fire, and heat sources.
- In order to avoid over-discharge for long-term storage, the power must be turned off and the State of Charge (SOC) must be kept above 60%. The battery must be fully charged and must be charged again every 3 months.
Operation:
⚠️ ATTENTION: Before installing, make sure that all appliances are turned off.
Turn on/off the battery:
Press and hold the "MAIN SWITCH" button for 3 seconds to turn the battery on or off. A green light indicates power on.
Remaining battery capacity:
Once the battery is turned on, you can press the "SOC" button to check the remaining battery capacity. The gauge will light up for 3 seconds. There are ten bars in total, and the reference power of each bar is 10%.
Alarm:
The battery may shut down immediately due to over-temperature, over-current, under-voltage, and external short-circuit. When there are only two bars left in the gauge, the gauge will sound an under-voltage alarm. This indicates the battery needs to be charged. When there is only one bar left in the gauge, the gauge will sound an under-voltage alarm again, and the LED indicator will be blinking. Once this happens, stop driving immediately and charge the battery as soon as possible.
Disclaimer: Once the gauge sounds an alarm, stop driving and charge the battery as soon as possible. Continuing to drive may cause the golf cart to stop suddenly. RoyPow is not responsible for any loss caused by the sudden stop of driving in this case.
Charging:
This battery needs to be used with the designated charger sold by RoyPow. Otherwise, it may cause insufficient charging or battery damage. RoyPow is not responsible for any problems caused by using non-designated chargers.
