Battery information
The
EasyTravel Elite
is designed to use sealed lead acid, maintenance-
free, 12V batteries.
Always turn your
EasyTravel Elite
OFF before removing and installing
batteries. To get the maximum out of your batteries, it is recommended to

charged will not harm them.
Extended charging is good for the batteries
and you cannot overcharge them.

batteries used. Charge your batteries daily and/or overnight when the
EasyTravel Elite
is not in use.
