Do not cover with a cloth or other objects while charging.
•
If the batteries are opened, all liability of the manufacturer is voided as well as any claim.
•
These batteries are maintenance free and there is no need to refill with water.
•
After charging do not leave the charger socket plugged into the scooter, as this will cause a
power drain on the scooter and temporarily reduce its range.
•
Replace both batteries together.
•
Do not smoke while charging as the battery may release hydrogen gas.
If you decide not to use your scooter for a prolonged period, you must nevertheless recharge it
regularly to keep it in a running condition ready for immediate use.
•
If the batteries are not being used for a prolonged period, they will discharge slowly by
themselves (in-depth discharging). Then it becomes impossible to recharge them with the
supplied battery charger. When batteries are not in use, they must be recharged at least every
week (depending on the charge indicator).
•
Note that if you recharge the batteries too frequently, they will eventually lose their capacity
irretrievably.
•
Use only the supplied battery charger and no other charging equipment.
•
The manufacturer shall decline all liability for damage caused by improper charging.
•
In every case the charging cycle must not be interrupted. The battery charger has an indicator
showing you when the charging cycle has been completed.
•
Do not charge any other electrical equipment with your scooter's battery or battery charger.
