Soft Riding Condition. When the battery is nearly depleted, a “soft” riding condition can occur.
A “soft” riding condition means the scooter can move forward at lower speed but under full
speed it shuts down. This occurs because under full speed, a large instant current causes the
voltage to drop in the battery reaching the controller stop limit to protect the battery and
shutting down the scooter. When this happens, turn the scooter back on and drive the scooter
under low speed until you can recharge the battery.
WARNING: Like any mechanical device, an electric scoter
and its components are subject to wear and stress. Different
materials and mechanisms wear or fatigue from stress at difference
rates and have different life cycles. If a component’s life cycle is
exceeded, the component can suddenly and catastrophically fail,
causing serious injury or death to the rider. Scratches, cracks, fraying
and discoloration are signs of stress-caused fatigue and indicate that a
part is at the end of its useful life and needs to be replaced. While the
materials and workmanship of your electric scooter or of individual
components may be covered by a warranty for specified period of time by
the manufacturer, this is no guarantee that the product will last the term
of the warranty. Product life is often related to the kind of riding you
do and to the treatment to which you submit your electric scooter.
BATTERY:
When used normally, the lithium battery provided with your scooter should not lose more than
30% of its capacity within the first 500 charging cycles. Average battery life for a properly
maintained lithium ion battery is approximately 1,000 charge/discharge cycles. If you notice your
travel distance significantly diminished despite having a full charge, it is a sign the lithium ion
battery needs to be replaced.
Fully charge the battery before storing the scooter for extended periods. Periodically
recharge the battery at least every 3 months during storage. Leaving the battery depleted
and un-charged for more than 3 months could permanently damage the battery and is not
covered by warranty.
