Suggestion
1.
Do not disconnect the charger cord if charging is not completed. The battery life will be seriously
shortened or decayed if the battery is repeatedly used without being fully charged. Therefore be sure to
charge the battery fully every time.
2.
Always complete the charging until the orange LED light turns green. NEVER stop charging before it
is complete.
3.
When fully charged, the battery charger will still trickle charge the battery to ensure optimum range.
4.
If you do not use your scooter for a long time, it should be charged at least every week to keep the
battery in a fully usable condition.
5.
The ambient temperature will affect charging time. Charging time will be longer in the winter.
6.
After charging, do not leave the charger socket plugged in to the scooter, as this will cause a power
drain on the scooter and temporarily reduce its range.
7.
The batteries carry a twelve-month manufacturer's warranty. This warranty only covers issues relating
to manufacturing faults, and not faults relating to failure to recharge the batteries as instructed above.
8.
Should range or power problems arise, please charge your scooter for 24 hours continually and then
retry the scooter.
