10.0 Operation – Batteries and Charging
10.1 General Information & Instructions on Charging
Your Scooter requires 2 x lead acid batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. They are recharged
by the supplied charging system.

Fully charge your travel scooter’s batteries for at least 10 to 12 hours prior to using it for the
first time. New batteries will be at their full capacity after having run through approx. 10-20
charging cycles (break-in period). This break-in period is necessary to fully activate the
battery for maximum performance and longevity.

Keep the batteries fully charged to keep your scooter running smoothly. Charge the
batteries daily after every discharge even after partly discharge. Depending on the level of
discharge, it can take up to 12 hours until the batteries are fully charged again.

If the battery indicator has reached the red LED range, charge the batteries for 16 hours
minimum, ignoring the charge complete display!

Even if the scooter is unused for long period of time, the batteries should have a 24-hour
charge once a week to make sure that both batteries are fully charged.

Do not cycle your batteries at a low state of charge without regularly recharging them fully.

Do not charge your batteries under extreme temperatures. High temperatures above 30°C
are not recommended for charging as well as low temperatures below 10°C.

You cannot overcharge the batteries when using the charger supplied with your vehicle, or a
charger that has been approved by One Rehab.

Protect your charger from sources of heat such as heaters and direct sunlight. It the battery
charger overheats, charging current will be reduced and the charging process delayed.
