• Check water levels.
  
  Inspect the water level in each battery every 30 days. If it’s low, top up with distilled water after fully charging the battery. Your authorised dealer may be able to provide filtered water as an alternative.
  
  Do not overfill and always refit the caps securely to prevent leakage.
  
  Note: The 30-day interval is based on typical use. If you use your vehicle more frequently, check the water level more often.
  
  
• Keep the battery clean.
  
  Clean the battery tops and terminals monthly using a mixture of one cup of baking soda to one gallon of water.
  
  • Avoid letting the solution enter the battery cells.
  • Rinse gently using a low-pressure water flow — never use a pressure washer.
  • Allow terminals to dry completely.
  • Apply Battery Terminal Protector Spray (available from your local Authorised Club Car Dealer).
  • Use battery corrosion-preventative spray monthly to help avoid corrosion.
    
    
• Check terminal torque.
  
  Ensure battery nuts are properly tightened to 110 in-lbs as recommended in your owner’s manual. Loose connections can create high resistance, increase amperage draw, and shorten run time.
  
  To test, gently move each cable side to side—if the terminal end shifts, have the nut torqued immediately.

Keep your Onward in peak condition with these quick checks:

• Check tire pressure.
  Confirm that your tyres are properly inflated and adjust as required. Correct pressure helps maintain performance and range by reducing rolling resistance. Refer to our tyre pressure guide for exact specifications.
  
• Wash your vehicle.
  Give your Onward a thorough wash, including the underside, to remove dirt and debris that can affect performance and appearance.
