Periodic Maintenance 

 

 

 

37 

 

Disassembling any sealed component on the battery 
can damage the battery.  
Never jump start the battery as this can damage vehicle 
electronics.

 

CAUTION

 

Do not use fuses that are out of specification 

compared to the original fuse. Any fuse 
installed that is not to specification can 

seriously damage the electrical system. 

CAUTION

 

CAUTION

 

CAUTION:  IF YOU ARE UNFAMILIAR WITH PERFORMING THESE 
MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES, VISIT A GENUINE DEALER FOR 

ASSISTANCE. 

 

 

Fuse Replacement

 

1.

 

The main fuse is located next to the battery inside the 

floorboard section.

 

2.

 

In the event of a broken fuse, disconnect the main

 

switch and any switch connected to circuits that have 
failed. Install a new fuse corresponding to the correct 
Amperage. Turn on the switch to check the function. If the 
new fuse burns immediately, contact your authorized 
Genuine Scooter Company dealer for service. 

Battery Maintenance 

A trickle / maintenance charger is highly recommended if you 
do not use your vehicle daily. The battery will deplete over 
time if the vehicle is not run on a regular basis.  Your Genuine 
Scooter Company dealer can recommend and install an 
appropriate charging device.  

 

You will be unable to start the vehicle with your electric start 
button if the battery has been depleted.  

 

Use the manual start option to start your vehicle.

 

 
Charge the vehicle's battery and fully disconnect the battery 
from the vehicle for long term storage such as winter.  Store 
the battery in a warm location if possible. Charge the battery 
once every three months during this period.

 

 

Battery

 

1.

 

It is unnecessary to add any electrolyte or distilled

 

water into the sealed battery installed on the vehicle. In 
case of any sign of leakage of battery acid, immediately 
contact your authorized Genuine Scooter Company 
dealer.

 

 

2.

 

If the engine has difficulty starting, weak horn, dim 

lights, etc., remove the battery from the vehicle and follow 
the standard procedure to charge the battery.
