8. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
For safe use and extended service life, your scooter (like any motorized vehicle) requires routine maintenance. Preventive
maintenance is very important. You can perform some of these regular checks yourself. If you follow the maintenance checks in this
section as scheduled, you can help ensure that your scooter gives you years of trouble-free operation.
MOISTURE
You should avoid storing your scooter in damp environments. Direct exposure to water or dampness could cause your scooter’s
electronic and mechanical parts to malfunction. Water can cause electrical components to corrode and the scooter's frame to rust.
Should your scooter come into contact with water:
• Dry your scooter as thoroughly as possible with a towel.
• Allow your scooter to rest in a warm, dry place to let invisible condensation evaporate.
• Perform safety checks of all operating functions before using your scooter.
• If you discover any inconsistencies, contact an authorized service centre.
TEMPERATURE
• Some of the parts of a scooter are susceptible to extreme changes in temperature.
Always keep your scooter in proper range of temperature.
• In extremely cold temperatures the batteries freeze.
The specific temperature at which they are frozen depends on several factors, such as battery charge,
usage, and composition of the batteries (e.g. AGM or Gel-Cell).
• Temperatures above 45
o
C may cause your scooter to operate at reduced speed.
This safety feature is preset to help prevent damage to the motor and other electrical components.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
• Avoid knocking or bumping the consoles.
• Avoid prolonged exposure of your scooter to extreme conditions, such as heat, cold or moisture.
• Keep the tiller console clean.
• Check all connectors to ensure that they are tight and secured properly.
• Check all electrical connectors including the charger's connectors. Make sure they are all tight and are not corroded.
Batteries must lie flat in the battery case.
• The yellow light comes on to indicate that the batteries are half empty and need to be charged, but the scooter can still be used.
• The red comes on to indicate the batteries are almost empty and need to be charged immediately.
• The body is coated in a clear sealant. You can apply a light coat of a car wax to help retain its high-gloss appearance.
• All wheel bearings are pre-lubricated and sealed. They require no subsequent lubrication.
CAUTION!
If you do not use the scooter for a long period, we recommend you to engage the scooter's
kickstand to prevent the tires from coming into contact with the ground.
DAILY CHECK
• With the power turned off, check the throttle control lever. Make sure it returns to the primary position when you release it.
• Check the right/left lock-nuts on the bottom end of the tiller. Make sure they are fastened to the tiller.
WEEKLY CHECK
• Check all electrical connectors. Make sure they are not loosened or corroded.
• Check the body joint bolt. Make sure this bolt is tightened.
• Check the brakes. This test should be carried out on an even surface with at least one meter of clearance around your scooter.
MONTHLY CHECK
• Check the anti-tip wheel. Make sure it does not touch the ground.
• Check the anti-tip wheel. Make sure it is not seriously worn. If it is worn it should be replaced.
• Check the drive wheels for wear. If they do require repair, contact an authorized provider.
• Keep your scooter clean and free of foreign bodies, such as hair, food, drink, dust and mud etc.
