Default I'm clueless

Ok I have just finished reading so many golf cart threads my head hurts. Amps and volts and 36 and 48 and reducers and I am feeling stupid.

Here is the problem. Rental unit came with electric club car. It has problems with hills and I am not sure we are getting it charged up all the way.
The gauge has from left to right- Pink triangle then an E (I assume for empty) a Large green pie then a F (I assume for full) then a white small pie with CHG printed inside it, then another pink triangle.
The charger has only once shut off most of the time it runs and runs and the needle moves from the CHG white to the pink but never shuts off and when we unplug it the needle drops back to the H in CHG. As soon as we move it the needle drops to the right side of the green. How do we know we are getting it fully charged, shouldn't the charger turn off? What do the different colors stand for I thought it was simple but now not so sure. Should I worry if it goes into the far right pink zone when charging?
