BATTERY CHARGING AND CARE
5.1 CHARGING THE BATTERIES
Follow the procedure below step by step:
1.
Turn the power switch to (OFF)
2.
Connect the charger’s power cord into the power outlet.
3.
Open the charging port cap on the scooter’s tiller. Then
connect the charger’s plug (round) to the charging
port.
4.
Turn the ON/OFF switch on the charger to the ON
position.
5.
Both the charger’s red and orange LEDs will be lit during the
charging cycle. The charging duration is about 6 - 8 hours. To
ensure optimum performance, a 10-hour charge is recommended,
but it is not recommended to leave the scooter on charge for more
than 24 consecutive hours.
6.
At the end of the charging cycle, when the batteries are fully
charged, both the red and green LEDs will be on.
7.
Turn off the charger; disconnect the power cord and the round plug from charger socket on the
scooter.
Suggestion
1.
Do not disconnect the charger cord if charging is not completed. The battery life will be
seriously shortened or decreased if the battery is repeatedly used without being fully charged,
therefore, be sure to charge the battery fully every time.
2.
Always complete the charging until the green LED light comes on. NEVER stop charging
before the charging cycle is completed.
3.
When fully charged, the battery charger will still trickle charge the battery to ensure optimum
range.
4.
If you do not use your scooter for a long time, it should be charged at least every month to keep
the batteries in a usable condition.
5.
Charging time will be affected by the ambient temperature. Charging time will be longer in the
winter.
6.
After charging, do not leave the charger socket plugged to the scooter, as this will cause a power
drain on the scooter and temporarily reduce its range.
7.
The batteries carry a six-month manufacturer's warranty. This warranty only covers issues
related to manufacturing defects. It doesn’t cover defects as a result of failing to maintain the
batteries as instructed above.
