sunlight. Do not charge the battery under rainfall, in morning dew or in an area
where the humidity is high.
Do not cover the scooter with any waterproof cloth or other objects while
charging. Don't charge in temperatures less than -10 C (14 F) or higher than 50 C
(122 F) as the charger may not work well and the battery may become damaged.
The charger is not guaranteed to be water resistant.
Valve Regulated Lead-Acid batteries do not have a memory function like cell

WARNING
:
Keep your scooter away from flammable objects while charging, as it may lead to
fire or explosion of the battery.
Since the battery may produce hydrogen, do not smoke while charging and charge
in a well-ventilated area.
Never connect or disconnect the plug (cord) with wet hands or if the plug (cord) is
wet to avoid possible electric shock.
Never attempt to recharge the batteries by attaching cables directly to the battery
terminals or clamps. DO NOT jump start your scooter!!!
Do NOT attempt to recharge the batteries while the power scooter is in operation.
CAUTION
:
New batteries MUST be fully charged prior to initial use of the power scooter.
Always charge new batteries before initial use or battery life will be reduced.
As a general rule, recharge batteries as frequently as possible to assure the
longest possible life and to minimize required charging time. Plan to recharge
them when use of the power scooter is not anticipated.
The drive range per battery charge using recommended batteries should be approximately 7-8
hours of typical operation. Extensive use on inclines may substantially reduce per charge
mileage.
