charged battery will register 12.8 V or higher.
2. If the voltage is less than 12.8 volts, recharge the battery at 1.2 amps
or less until battery voltage is 12.8 or greater.
3. When using an automatic charger, refer to the charger manufac-
turer's instructions for recharging. When using a constant current
charger, use the following guidelines for recharging.
