Battery Disposal
Lead-acid batteries are recyclable. Return whole scrap batteries to distributor, manufacturer or lead smelter for recy-
cling. For neutralized spills, place residue in acid-resistant containers with absorbent material, sand or earth and dis-
pose of in accordance with local, state and federal regulations for acid and lead compounds.
Contact local and/or state environmental officials regarding disposal information.
Prolonged Storage
During periods of storage, the batteries will need attention to keep them maintained and prevent discharge.
In winter conditions, the battery must be fully charged to prevent the possibility of freezing. A fully charged battery
will not freeze in temperatures above -75° F (-60° C). Although the chemical reaction is slowed in cold temperatures,
the battery must be stored fully charged. The on-board charger supplied with your vehicle may be left connected to
an active AC power source for prolonged periods to maintain the proper state of charge for the battery pack.
