Operation
SUGGESTION
1. You should recharge the batteries after each time the vehicle is used to ensure
maximum range. The batteries should be charged up at least once a week even if
the scooter is not used.
2. After charging or replacing a new battery, drive the vehicle for 2-3 minutes to
make sure the battery capacity is sufficient.
3. In wintertime, the battery may respond more slowly and the driving range may be
reduced.
4. When driving on a slope, the battery indicator gauge may fluctuate. This is a
normal event.
5. Even if the battery is used properly, it is natural for the battery’s capacity to
reduce with time, which results in reduced driving range compared to a brand
new battery. Therefore, when you find the driving range is only 50% of the range
when the battery-pack was new, it is time to replace the batteries contained in the
battery-pack. Please see your dealer about replacement batteries. If you continue
to use the old battery when it should be replaced, it could lead to a rapid decline
in performance.
6. The driving range will be reduced when driving frequently on slopes or rough
terrain, as this causes greater consumption of power.
7. The batteries have a six-month warranty covering manufacturing defects. This
warranty does not cover faults due to incorrect battery recharging.
Battery Indicator
• The battery indicator on the tiller
console uses a color code to
indicate the approximate power
remaining in your batteries. Green
indicates (40°-100%) capacity,
yellow indicates (10°-30%)
capacity, and red indicates that an
immediate recharge is necessary.
• The remaining power suggested by
the battery indicator will vary by
the actual driving time and how
you drive. Repeated starting,
stopping, and climbing will
consume the power more quickly.
