POWER METER
The power meter displays the traction motor power consumption and the regenerative
brake power applied to the Li-ion battery.
When the bat tery is charged, power is
generated by the regenerative brake system
and the central dot
1 illuminates and the
number of circles increases to the lef t.
When the bat tery discharges and power is provided to the motor, the central
dot
1 illuminates and the number of circles increases to the right.
The number of cir cles will increase or decrease depending on the Li-ion battery
conditions. (Motor output is limited if the Li-ion battery temperature is too high
or too low or if the Li-ion battery level is low.)
