CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING YOUR SCOOTER
TIRES
• Clean the tires with ordinary kitchen-type cleaners/mild soap and a damp cloth.
• Do not use solvents on tires. These can cause the tire material to break down or
become too soft.
BODY
• Use damp cloth with mild soap or detergent to remove dirt and oil.
• Use a clean soft cloth to dry and buff.
• Do not use a hose or pressure washer to wash your scooter.
SEAT AND FLOOR MAT
• Clean with a mild soap or mild detergent and a damp cloth (a vinyl cleaner may also be
used) and wipe with soft dry cloth.
BATTERIES AND CHARGING
Battery maintenance is a crucial part of maintaining your scooter. Keeping the
batteries fully charged helps to extend battery life. Use the following guidelines to
help keep your batteries in optimum condition.
• We recommend that you plug in the off-board charger after each use for 6-8 hours. For
best results charge your batteries overnight after a day of use.
• If you do not plan to use the scooter for more than a week, fully charge the batteries and
then remove the battery packs from the scooter.
IMPORTANT :
New batteries should be fully charged before use. Charge for a 12-hour
period in order to condition them for maximum performance. For daily use, keep
batteries fully charged.
