In the case of a new battery, you must carry out at least 3 to 4 complete charging/discharging cycles.
This optimises battery yield and is necessary for arriving at the number of recharging cycles indicated in
the specifications.
WARNING
: you must not leave the battery inactive for long periods: recharging at least once a month is
advisable. If the scooter is not being used on a regular basis, it is good practice to disconnect it from the
vehicle’s electrical system. The display provides continuous up-to-date information on the level of battery
charge.
In preparation for long periods of inactivity it is advisable to:
z
carry out general cleaning of the scooter, drying it with a soft cloth
z
disconnect the battery as described previously or, preferably, remove it altogether from the vehicle.
In the latter case, conserve the battery in a environment that has a constant temperature and far from
sources of heat and direct sunlight. This improves battery operation and prolongs its lifetime.
z
where possible store the scooter in sheltered place
z
park the scooter on its central stand so that the wheels do not remain for too long in contact with the
ground in same position
z
cover the scooter with a protective covering.
WARNING
: storage of batteries at temperatures over 40 °C for prolonged periods may significantly
reduce their expected useful lifetime.
