VI. BATTERIES AND CHARGING
What type and size of battery should I use?
We recommend deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. Both sealed lead-acid (SLA) and gel
cell are deep-cycle batteries that are similar in performance in your Wrangler. Do not use wet-cell batteries, which
have removable caps.
CAUTION! Do not remove the caps from sealed batteries. Water cannot be added to sealed
batteries. Cap removal voids the battery warranty and may cause damage to the batteries
and to your Wrangler.
Use these specifications to reorder deep-cycle batteries:
Type: Deep-cycle (sealed lead-acid or gel cell)
Size: Group 27
Voltage: 12 volts each
Amperage: 100 AH (amp hours)
What if my Wrangler doesnt arrive with batteries?
If your Wrangler does not come with batteries already installed from Pride, you have chosen to purchase the
batteries separately. Carefully follow the instructions below for proper wire placement and battery installation.
To place the batteries in your Wrangler:
1. Remove the seat and rear shroud from the
Wrangler.
2. Place the batteries into the battery wells. Be
sure that the positive (+) terminal of the left
side battery and the negative (-) terminal of
the right side battery are facing forward. See
figure 9.
3. Connect the main circuit breaker to the front
battery terminals.
4. Connect the rear black cable to the negative
(-) battery terminal.
5. Connect the rear red cable to the positive
(+) battery terminal.
6. Fasten the battery tie-down straps.
7 Reinstall the rear shroud and seat.
To remove the batteries:
1. Remove the seat and rear shroud.
2. Disconnect all the cables from the battery ter-
minals.
3. Unfasten the battery tie-down straps.
4. Remove the batteries.
WARNING! Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead com-
pounds. Wash hands after handling.
