Battery Charge Indicator (see Fig. 21/8)

• 

Before the scooter is switched on, the indicating 
needle will be on the extreme left of the meter.

• 

When switched on with the batteries fully 
charged, the needle will be at the right of the 
green section.

• 

As power is used, the needle will move 
gradually towards the yellow and then the red 
section.

• 

If the needle reaches the yellow section, 
the batteries should be charged as soon as 
possible.

• 

If the needle reaches the red section, although 
some power remains, the batteries should be 
charged immediately.

Do not

 operate the scooter with depleted batteries, 

this may get you stranded.

Note:

 The indication is approximate, and the user 

should allow a variation of ±10%.

Batteries and Charger

Batteries

The Mantis scooter is programmed to work with 
sealed, maintenance-free 12V batteries.

Note:

 Turn off the scooter before removing or 

installing batteries.

Full charging of the batteries prior to usage helps 
keep them operational and lengthens their lifespan. 
Batteries can be charged at any time, without 
concern for over-charging.

Note:

 Do not use a car battery. Car batteries are not 

designed for the scooters and can be dangerous. 
Battery lifespan is influenced by treatment, number  
of recharges, storage and usage.

Charging the Battery

The charger may be connected to a standard socket 
outlet, 100-120V or 180-240V according to the country 
in which it is being used.

The charger automatically prevents over-charging.

Note:

 The battery cannot be charged if it completely 

discharged. It is recommended that you recharge as 
often as possible.

The batteries can only be charged while they are 
connected to the scooter. Plug the charger connector 
into the scooter input outlet and then connect the 
charger to the power source (see Fig. 22).

Driving or operation of the scooter is inhibited while 
the device is charging and should 

Not

 be attempted.

Note:

 If the operator is unable to reach the charging 

socket, it may be connected by an assistant.

battery utilization, charge the battery overnight,  
or for at least 4 hours after.
