Safety Details

SAFETY DETAILS

ý

WARNING

• This owner’s manual should be read completely before attempting to use or service the charger. Failure to follow the instructions in this manual could result in property damage, severe personal injury, or death.

It is important to note that throughout this manual there are statements labeled DANGER, WARNING, or CAU-

TION. These special statements relate to specific safety issues, and must be read, understood, and heeded before proceeding with procedures.

If any of the information printed on the cover of the charger becomes damaged, has been removed, or cannot be easily read, replace the cover immediately to avoid possible property damage, personal injury, or death.

Contact your Club Car distributor/dealer for replacement information.

ý

DANGER

• A DANGER indicates an immediate hazard that will result in severe personal injury or death.

ý

WARNING

• A WARNING indicates an immediate hazard that could result in severe personal injury or death.

ý

CAUT ION

• A CAUTION with the safety alert symbol indicates a hazard or unsafe practice that could result in minor personal injury or product or property damage.

CAUT ION

• A CAUTION without the safety alert symbol indicates a situation that potentially could result in property damage.

The safety precautions listed must be followed whenever the charger is being operated, repaired, or serviced.

Specific warnings appear throughout this manual and on the charger.

GENERAL INFORMATION

PowerDrive battery chargers are available in several different configurations for use domestically (United

States) and internationally (Figures 1 through 7). Some PowerDrive chargers are equipped with a multi-position switch (located on the rear panel) for AC input voltage selection (Figure 8).

The PowerDrive battery charger is automatic and has no external controls. When the charger is connected, there is a 2 to 15 second delay before charging begins.

NOTE: PowerDrive and PowerDrive Plus Vehicles:

Shortly after charging begins, the charger will shut off in order to run a self-diagnostic program (ammeter will drop to zero). Charging will resume in a few moments (ammeter returns to previous rate of charge). This will be repeated at one hour and at two hours into the charge cycle.

Page 6PowerDrive Battery Charger Owner’s Manual

General Information

IQ System Vehicles:

At one hour and at two hours into the charge cycle, the charger will shut off in order to run a self-diagnostic program (ammeter will drop to zero). Charging will resume in a few moments (ammeter returns to previous rate of charge).

The onboard computer, having recorded the amount of energy consumed as the vehicle was used, directs the charger to replace exactly the amount of energy needed to fully replenish the batteries. The charger then shuts off automatically, preventing the possibility of either undercharging or overcharging. The computer accomplishes this by detecting when the exact amount of energy necessary has been returned to the batteries.

POWERDRIVE EXTERNAL CHARGER FEATURES

• Charge Interlock

PowerDrive battery charger DC plugs have three pins rather than two blades common on most standard charger plugs. Two of these pins are the positive and negative leads as on standard chargers; the third pin is a sensing lead that is the communication link between the charger and the onboard computer. When the charger plug is plugged into the vehicle receptacle, the onboard computer locks out the vehicle drive system. This prevents the possibility of driving the vehicle while the charger is plugged in and potentially damaging the vehicle and charger.

• Long-Term Storage Charge

IQ System, PowerDrive, and PowerDrive Plus vehicles with PowerDrive chargers are designed to be left connected with AC power to the charger, during off-season or long-term storage. The onboard computer will automatically activate the charger every 15 days. To return the vehicle to service, unplug the

Page 8PowerDrive Battery Charger Owner’s Manual

General Information charger DC cord, wait 15 seconds for the computer to reset, and plug the charger back in. See follow-

ing WARNING. This will ensure the batteries are at their optimum charge prior to returning the vehicle to service.

ý

WARNING

• The charger plug must be pulled slowly from the receptacle. Jerking or pulling the DC cord out quickly could cause arcing and burning that could damage the plug and receptacle and could cause batteries to explode.

CAUT ION

• Be sure to check the batteries and charger monthly to maintain correct battery water level and ensure the charger is operating correctly during storage.

POWERDRIVE ONBOARD CHARGER FEATURES

• Charge Interlock

When the AC power cord is inserted into a wall receptacle, the onboard computer locks out the vehicle drive system. This prevents the possibility of driving the vehicle while the charger is plugged in and potentially damaging the vehicle and charger.

• Long-Term Storage Charge

PowerDrive chargers are designed to be left connected with AC power to the charger, during off-season or long-term storage. The onboard computer will automatically activate the charger every 15 days.

To return the vehicle to service, disconnect the AC cord from the wall outlet, wait 15 seconds and then plug the AC cord back in. The charger will activate. Allow the vehicle to complete one full charge cycle before putting it into service.

BATTERY WARNING LIGHT

IQ System, PowerDrive, and PowerDrive Plus vehicles feature a dash mounted battery warning light (above the steering column) that, when the vehicle is in operation, indicates low battery voltage or, when the vehicle is being charged, indicates a charging problem. The battery warning light is controlled by the onboard computer. See following NOTE.

NOTE:

Beginning with the 1998 model year, the onboard computer LED became part of the battery warning light rather than being mounted in the computer itself, and the warning light lens color changed from red to amber. This simplifies using a Communication Display Module (CCI P/N 101831801) to obtain data from the onboard computer.

When the batteries receive an incomplete charge because 1) the DC power cord is disconnected, 2) AC power to charger is interrupted, 3) automatic charger shut-off occurs after 16 hours of operation, or 4) charger malfunctions, the warning light will indicate as follows:

The battery warning light will not illuminate if the charge is 90% or more complete. The onboard computer will retain in memory the amount of charge needed to replenish the batteries and will complete the charge during the next charge cycle.

When the charger DC cord is unplugged during a charge cycle, the battery warning light will illuminate and remain illuminated for 10 seconds (25 seconds for Precedent vehicles) if the charge is less than

90% complete but the vehicle has enough power for 60 minutes of operation. This will alert the fleet operator that the vehicle may be used, but that it must be charged to completion as soon as possible.

The battery warning light will repeatedly illuminate for 10 seconds, at 4 second intervals (25 seconds, at 10 second intervals for Precedent vehicles), if the charger times out at 16 hours and the batteries are not sufficiently charged. This indicates an abnormal charge cycle. The charger and batteries should be

PowerDrive Battery Charger Owner’s ManualPage 9

External Charger Installation and Operation checked by your Club Car distributor/dealer.

• External chargers only: The battery warning light will repeatedly illuminate for 10 seconds, at 4 second intervals (25 seconds, at 10 second intervals for Precedent vehicles), during a charge cycle (with the DC plug still connected) if AC power to the charger is interrupted. The light will go out when AC power is restored.

3. PowerDrive and PowerDrive Plus vehicles: 10 to 20 seconds after the charger activates, it will shut off again to run a self-diagnostic program (the ammeter will drop to 0). Charging will resume in a few moments (ammeter will return to previous rate of charge).

Page 12PowerDrive Battery Charger Owner’s Manual

External Charger Installation and Operation

4. Monitor the ammeter for the correct charge rate. The initial charge rate will vary from 15 to 19 amps, depending upon the condition and depth of discharge of the batteries. Slight variations in the initial charge rate may also result from AC line input voltages which are higher or lower than the nominal input voltage. Higher AC line voltages increase the initial charge rate while lower AC line voltages reduce the initial charge rate.

5. PowerDrive and PowerDrive Plus vehicles: Monitor the ammeter for about 30 seconds. Under normal operating conditions (when the charger is on and the batteries are discharged), the ammeter will drop to zero for 2 to 3 seconds at the beginning of each charge cycle in order to perform a self-diagnostic test.

This test will be repeated at one hour and two hours into the charge cycle. See following NOTE.

6. IQ System vehicles: At one hour and at two hours into the charge cycle, the charger will shut off in order to run a self-diagnostic program (ammeter will drop to zero). Charging will resume in a few moments

(ammeter returns to previous rate of charge).

NOTE: PowerDrive and PowerDrive Plus vehicles:

If the batteries are in a fully charged state and the vehicle has not been driven, the onboard computer will not perform the self-diagnostic test.

All vehicles:

Batteries should be put on charge at the end of each day even if the vehicle has been used for only a short amount of time (even if for only 10 minutes).

When air temperatures fall below 65°F (18.3°C), batteries charged in unheated areas should be placed on charge as soon as possible after use. Cold batteries require more time to fully charge.

New batteries will not deliver their full range until the vehicle has been driven and recharged from

20 to 50 times.

Vehicles should be restricted to 40 to 50 energy units of discharge (or 36 holes of golf) between charges until the batteries have been properly seasoned (20 to 50 charge cycles). For maximum battery life,

Club Car recommends that electric vehicles always be recharged after 40 to 50 energy units of discharge or each night in order to avoid deep discharging the batteries. Charging between rounds will also extend battery life; use the CDM (Communication Display Module) (CCI P/N 101831801).

The limited warranty with respect to parts and labor only covers defects in material and workmanship for a period of four years from the date of purchase. Such repair labor shall be performed only by CLUB CAR or by an authorized distributor or dealer. Purchaser shall be responsible for all freight costs to and from CLUB CAR’s facility.

LIMITED WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS

THE PROVISIONS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY SHALL NOT APPLY TO FAILURE DUE TO:

1) Lack of normal maintenance services such as preventive maintenance checks and tightening loose wire connections;

2) Semiconductor parts such as diodes and fuses which are vulnerable to electrical overloads (including lightning) beyond the control of CLUB CAR;

3) Charger DC cord set with plug, which is a wear item and subject to user abuse.

Any warranty service, which includes labor during the first year, must be performed by CLUB CAR or by an authorized distributor or dealer. For repairs made by qualified technicians other than CLUB CAR’s factory technicians or an authorized distributor or dealer, CLUB CAR will provide only the replacement parts or components.

The PowerDrive Chargers are intended to be used by persons with knowledge of the chargers and proper charging practices and only on CLUB CAR PowerDrive System 48

, PowerDrive Plus

®

, and IQ System

vehicles. Any other use renders the Limited Warranties expressed herein and any implied warranties null and void and same are hereby excluded.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing in any way, and as part of its limited warranty exclusion, CLUB CAR does not warrant that the PowerDrive Charger is suitable for use in any application other than its PowerDrive System 48, PowerDrive

Plus, and IQ System products. As in the use of any electrical device, a prudent owner will read and study the charger owner’s manual, the electric vehicle owner’s manual, the operator instructions, and the battery warning labels; and will exercise due care in working on or around electrical devices.

Transportation expenses for warranty services are also excluded from this warranty.

WARRANTY LIMITATIONS

CLUB CAR’s liability under this limited warranty, or in any action whether based upon warranty, contract, negligence, strict product liability or otherwise, shall be the replacement or repair of a charger or component thereof that CLUB CAR deems to be defective. Replacement shall mean furnishing, during the applicable limited warranty period, a new charger or component thereof that is identical or reasonably equivalent to the warranted product or defective component at no cost to the purchaser. Repair shall mean remedying a defect in the charger or component thereof at no cost to the purchaser during the applicable limited warranty period. If CLUB CAR elects to repair the charger, it may provide factory-reconditioned parts or components. All parts and components replaced under warranty shall become the property of CLUB CAR.

THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE. CLUB CAR MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESSED

OR IMPLIED. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE

WHICH EXCEED THE OBLIGATIONS OR TIME LIMITS STATED IN THIS WARRANTY ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED BY

CLUB CAR AND EXCLUDED FROM THIS WARRANTY. THE PURCHASER AND CLUB CAR EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT

THE REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF THE DEFECTIVE VEHICLE OR COMPONENT THEREOF IS THE SOLE REMEDY

OF THE PURCHASER. CLUB CAR MAKES NO OTHER REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND AND NO

REPRESENTATIVE, EMPLOYEE, DISTRIBUTOR OR DEALER OF CLUB CAR HAS THE AUTHORITY TO MAKE OR

IMPLY ANY REPRESENTATION, PROMISE OR AGREEMENT, WHICH IN ANY WAY VARIES THE TERMS OF THIS

WARRANTY.

IN NO EVENT SHALL CLUB CAR BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES INCLUDING,

BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS RELATED TO PROPERTY OTHER THAN THE BATTERY CHARGER, LOSS OF USE,

LOSS OF TIME, INCONVENIENCE, OR ANY OTHER ECONOMIC LOSS.

Damage not resulting from a defect that occurs due to unreasonable use, abuse or neglect (including failure to provide reasonable or necessary maintenance), accident or alteration is excluded from the limited warranty.

Some states allow neither limitation on the duration of an implied warranty nor exclusions or limitations of incidental or consequential damages. Therefore, the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.
