Scoozy has a resistor to heat the battery and to send braking
energy in cold conditions. The battery cannot be charged below
0 °C, so Scoozy will ensure that the battery remains at the
right temperature when the outside air is colder than 0 °C. The
following situations can occur:
The battery gets colder than 0 °C while driving:
•
In this case Scoozy will limit the speed, you will see a
snowflake on the screen and Scoozy will try to get the battery
back up to temperature with the heater.
•
If you left with a battery temperature above 0 °C, we do not
expect it to drop. However, we cannot guarantee this at
extreme temperatures.
•
You can always keep driving in cold conditions. However,
Scoozy’s speed will be limited by the limited braking power of
the resistor. By continuing to drive, the battery heats up the
fastest.
The battery is below 0 °C when you turn on Scoozy:
•
In this case, you will see the snowflake on the display. Scoozy
turns on the heating when the battery is more than 20%
charged. If not, Scoozy will not be able to charge or to drive.
Then take Scoozy to a warm place.
•
How long it takes to warm up the battery depends on the
outside temperature and the initial temperature of the
battery.
•
Whenever possible, we recommend that you store Scoozy in
a frost-free area.
•
When the charger is plugged in and the battery is still colder
than 0 ° C, Scoozy will warn you to remove the charger.
Charging below 0 ° C can seriously damage your battery. The
battery temperature can always be read in the info menu>
