Follow these steps to properly break in your scooter’s new
batteries for maximum efficiency and service life:
1. Fully recharge any new battery prior to its initial use. This
charging cycle brings the battery up to about 88% of its peak
performance level.
2. Operate your new scooter in familiar and safe areas. Drive
slowly at first, and do not travel too far from your home or
familiar surroundings until you have become accustomed to
your scooter’s controls and have properly broken in your
scooter’s batteries.
3. Fully recharge the batteries. They should be at over 90% of
their peak performance level.
4. Operate your scooter again.
5. Fully recharge the batteries again.
6. After four or five charging cycles, the batteries are able to
receive a charge of 100% of their peak performance level
and are able to last for an extended period of time.
What about public transportation?
If you intend to use public transportation with your scooter, you
must contact the transportation provider in advance to determine
their specific requirements.
