Quick Charging
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Subaru Baja. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Quick charging is a method in which the battery is charged in a short period of time with a relatively large current by using a quick charger.
Since a large current flow raises electrolyte temperature, the battery is subject to damage if the large current is used for prolonged time. For this reason, the quick charging must be carried out within a current range that will not increase the electrolyte temperature above 40°C (104°F).
It should be also remembered that the quick charging is a temporary means to bring battery voltage up to a fair value and, as a rule, a battery should be charged slowly with a low current.
CAUTION:
Never use more than 10 amperes when charging the battery because that will shorten battery life.
