Charging the Batteries
Before riding your EMU for the first time, the unit should be fully charged. Ride
your EMU until the battery is fully discharged before recharging it. Doing this 3-5
times will insure maximum battery efficiency and scooter performance. Once this
has been done, for best results.
The lead acid batteries in the MINI should be recharged frequently, at least once
every 30 days for longest battery life. Leaving the battery uncharged for more
than 3 months will significantly decrease the battery lifespan. If you are not going
to use your EMU-MINI remove the fuse from the blue connecter under the battery
cover.
To charge the batteries, plug the charger into the socket located at the rear of the
battery compartment, then plug the charger into the wall outlet. The light on the
charge will be red when the unit is charging the batteries. When the light turns
green, the charge is complete.
Always plug the charger into the trike before
the outlet.
Be sure the charger is properly connected to the EMU. The connector is
indented so that it will fit only one way. Do not force the connection. It should
slide easily into the unit when correctly aligned.
WARNING
Never leave the charger plugged into either the
EMU or electric outlet for longer than 8 hours.
Leaving your charger connected for a long
period can cause a fire.
