Charging Instructions
Your mobility scooter requires a lithium battery that is sealed and maintenance free. The battery is recharged by the
supplied off-board charging system.
•
Fully charge your scooter
’
s battery for at least 6 to 7 hours before using it for the first time. The new battery will be
at its full capacity after having run through approx. 10-20 charging cycles (break-in period). This break-in period is
necessary to fully activate the battery for maximum performance and longevity.
•
Keep the battery fully charged to keep your scooter running smoothly. Charge the battery daily after every
discharge even after partial discharge. Depending on the level of discharge, it can take up to 12 hours until the
battery is fully charged again.
•
If the battery indicator has reached the red LED range, charge the battery for 16 hours minimum, ignoring the
charge complete display!
•
Even if the scooter is unused for a long time, the battery should have a 24-hour charge once a week to make sure
that it is fully charged.
•
Do not cycle your battery at a low state of charge without regularly recharging it fully.
•
Do not charge your battery under extreme temperatures. High temperatures above 30°C is not recommended for
charging as well as low temperatures below 10°C.
•
You cannot overcharge the battery when using the charger supplied with your vehicle, or a charger that has been
approved by Scooterpac.
