How long will my batteries last?
This is a difficult question as it depends on many
factors. The life of a battery depends upon the
number of cycles the battery goes through, the peak
loads and on the conditions of use. Some general
advice about battery care:
•
Keep charged, and do not let the battery run
completely flat.
•
Ensure the batteries are fully charged at the
end of the charging cycle.
•
Batteries may not perform as well in very
cold or very hot weather.
Ask you dealer to test and replace the batteries if
they have reached the end of their useful life. Care
can prolong the life of the batteries but remember
that, in time, all batteries will fail to operate to
specification and degrade in performance.
This product is designed to be operated by adults.
Children should not be allowed to tamper with the
controls or play on the scooter.
Do not carry
children as passengers.
The product is designed
for single adult use only. Keep all packaging well
away from children. They could be harmed.
What range can I expect?
The generally
‘up to’
maximum theoretical range is
recorded in the
Technical Specification
section.
Remember, range can be affected by many things
such as:
-Temperature - Cold/Hot weather can reduce the
output of the batteries and scooter motor.
-Frequent stopping and starting.
-Type of terrain - Climbing hills and inclines takes
more energy than driving on the flat.
-Weight of the person and objects carried.
-Tyre condition.
-The condition and state of charge of the
batteries.
-Faulty or old batteries, or a faulty charger.
Always use the correct charger with the correct
batteries and ensure the scooter is fully charged
before using.
Battery Level:
Ensure the scooter is fully charged
before you start out on a journey and monitor the
charge level indicated.
