CHARGING THE AMIGO ESCORT
24V Charger Operating Instructions
READ INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY BEFORE USING!
To Charge:
Park the Escort near a grounded AC electrical outlet and turn the power “OFF” before charging. First, find the charging
cord located behind the seat. Plug the end into the AC electrical outlet. Ensure the end of the cord is secure in the outlet. Observe
the LED light on the handle control panel. Connecting the charge cord to an AC source will initiate the charge cycle. The LED will
flash for approximately 30 seconds indicating start of the charge cycle. The LED will glow continuously until the batteries are fully
charged. The LED will flash when the charge is complete.
1. It is always best to allow the batteries to charge fully.
2. Charge eight (8) hours or overnight for the very first charge.
3. After the first charge, attempt to achieve a five (5) hour minimum uninterrupted charge cycle. However, Amigo recommends an
eight (8) hour uninterrupted charge cycle.
Remember:
It is best to keep the batteries fully charged. Extended charging will not overcharge them and is recommended
when the Escort is not in use.
24-Volt Charger Safety Features
The Escort is equipped with a feature to reduce power usage when the batteries drop below 23.0 volts allowing time to move to a
charging station. Driving functions are disabled while in the charging mode. This safety feature eliminates the possibility of driving
away while the cord is attached.
Note:
Make sure the AC charge cord is unplugged from the wall AC electrical outlet before disconnecting from the Escort or
moving the Escort.
