Please follow these steps to properly break in your scooter’s new batteries for
maximum efficiency and service life:
1. Fully recharge any new battery prior to its initial use. This charging cycle
brings the battery up to about 88% of its peak performance level.
2. Operate your new scooter in familiar and safe areas. Drive slowly at first,
and do not travel too far from your home or familiar surroundings until you
have become accustomed to your scooter’s controls and have properly
broken in your scooter’s batteries.
3. Fully recharge the batteries. They should be at over 90% of their peak
performance level.
4. Operate your scooter again.
5. Fully recharge the batteries again.
6. After four or five charging cycles, the batteries are able to receive a
charge of 100% of their peak performance level and are able to last for an
extended period of time.
How can I ensure maximum battery life?
Fully charged deep-cycle batteries provide reliable performance and extended
battery life. Keep your scooter’s batteries fully charged whenever possible.
Batteries that are regularly and deeply discharged, infrequently charged, or
stored without a full charge may be permanently damaged, causing unreliable
performance and limited service life.
How should I store my scooter and its batteries?
See the “Care & Maintenance” section of this manual.
What about public transportation?
If you intend to use public transportation while using your scooter, you must
contact in advance the transportation provider to determine their specific
requirements.
