FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How does the charger work?
When your scooter’s battery voltage is low, the charger works harder, sending more electrical current to
the batteries to bring up their charge. As the batteries approach a full charge, the charger sends less and
less electrical current. When the batteries are fully charged, the current sent from the charger is at nearly
zero amperage. Therefore, when the charger is plugged in, it maintains the charge on your scooter’s
batteries, but does not overcharge them. Refer to the manual supplied with the battery charger for charging
instructions.
Can I use a different charger?
Chargers are selected precisely for particular applications and are especially matched to the type, size
and chemical formulation of specific batteries. For the safest and most efficient charging of your
scooter’s batteries we recommend only use of the charger supplied as original equipment with your
product. Any charging method resulting in batteries being charged individually is especially
prohibited.
