Charging safety tips
Use only only the EcoReco branded battery, charger and cables supplied.
Only use EcoReco factory parts.
Ensure the correct connection of the charger using the designated cables.
Ensure sufficient ventilation.
Ensure a dry environment. Never allow the charger or cable to come into contact with water as this may
result in an electric shock. Never touch the charger or cable with wet hands.
Immediately remove the plug from the electrical outlet if any fault arises during charging.
Always pull the plug, not the cable.
Do not allow the charger or cables to be damaged or crushed by sharp edges or heat.
Be careful when charging the scooter in the folded position. The weight of the scooter may damage the
charging connector if the scooter falls on the cable connector.
Before each charging, perform regular visual inspections of the cables and charger.
Do not operate the charger if the charger or cables displays visible damages.
Contact EcoReco to order a replacement charger. A damaged charger could cause personal injury or short
circuit the scooter electronics, voiding the warranty.
Do not carry out independent repairs on the battery, charger or cables. Contact EcoReco or your dealer for your
service needs.
The battery capacity status and charging cycle are indicated on the dashboard when the scooter is powered on.
More information is outlined in the “Dashboard and throttle unit” section.
It is most energy efficient when charging is performed between 20-80% of battery capacity.
When used normally, the battery should not lose more than 20% of its capacity within the first 600 charging
cycles. Typical rechargeable cycles of Lithium FerroPhosphate (LiFePO4) are more than 2,000 times without
losing significiant capacity.
If you ride until the battery is fully discharged and the scooter shuts down automatically, it will not cause any
damage. However, please charge the battery immediately.
Please do not force to restart the dashboard and throttle unit after the battery is fully discharged and the
scooter shuts off automatically. Doing so might cause irreparable damage (ie, deep discharge) to the battery
and also cause the warranty to become null and void.
Avoid operating the scooter when the battery is hot.
