the 12V Battery Reset switch (left side of the steering wheel near the fuel
door open switch) to reconnect the 12V battery, but you must start vehicle within
15 seconds of pressing the 12V Battery Reset switch. After starting vehicle,
operate the vehicle safely outdoors in ready mode stopped and/or drive it for
30 minutes total to charge the 12V battery fully.
