Flushing the unit off with cool clean tap water after use, and waxing often is recommended. It is best not to wash and wax your "IST'S PRODUCTS" in direct sunlight. Caution: Never have your battery cables connected to the battery during washing.

The battery can be charged at a higher current if time to charge is more important than battery longevity. Caution: the lead acid batteries have sulfuric acid that is highly corrosive. Ventilation is important when recharging lead acid batteries. Read the cautions that are on the battery.
