Troubleshooting & Battery Info
Important Battery and Charger Information
• Only an adult who has read and understands the safety warnings may handle and
operate the battery and battery charger. Keep away from children.
•
• Charge the battery immediately after each use. Charge for at least 8-12 hours, but
no more than 20 hours.
• Charge the battery at least once a month, even if the vehicle is not used or stored.
• Never leave the battery in a discharged condition.
• Connect the terminal of the battery and charger, then plug the charger into a 120V
AC outlet.
• It is normal for the charger to heat slightly. If the charger rises above 71°C / 160°F,
disconnect the charger and call Customer Service for assistance.
• Keep the charger away from water or excessive moisture to prevent short-
circuiting.
•
Do not charge the battery
with any other charger.
• Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries with the original charger.
• Do not replace the battery with any other battery, or the warranty will be
voided.
• Remove damaged batteries from the vehicle immediately. Recycle or dispose of
the used batteries responsibly.
• Do not short circuit the supply terminals.
• Do not leave the battery connected in the vehicle for extended periods of time
when the vehicle is not being used. Disconnect the battery connector from the
engine connector before storing.
• The vehicle is equipped with a thermal fuse to protect the electric circuit. If the
vehicle cuts out, turn the vehicle off and on to reset.
Troubleshooting Information
• If the switch does not work this may be due to poor connections or the fuse needs
replacing. Please check the wire connections. If this does not solve the problem,
then please check and replace the fuse. If the motor slows down or stops this may
be due to a low battery. Please recharge the battery for approximately 10 hours. If
the battery is not charging, this may be due to a damaged charger, a problem with
the fuse plug, or the battery has come to the end of its battery life. Please check
and replace the fuse or replace the battery.
