6.2
BATTERY
Do not expose the battery to temperatures below 10
°
C or above 25
°
C when charging or storing
the scooter. Under the above temperature range can cause the battery either to freeze or over heat.
This will damage the batteries and shorten their life.
These batteries are maintenance free and there is no need to refill with water.
You are required to recharge the batteries on a regular basis. Even if the scooter is stood idle, you
should charge the batteries at least once a week.
The batteries carry a six-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.
Suggestion – How to maximize your batteries efficiency and service life
1.
Fully recharge your new battery before its first time use.
2.
Be sure to charge the battery fully every time. The battery life will be seriously shortened or decayed
if the battery is repeatedly used without being fully charged.
3.
Always complete the charging until the orange LED light turns green. NEVER stop charging before
it is complete.
4.
Keep your batteries fully charged whenever possible.
5.
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.
6.
The ambient temperature will affect charging time. Charging time will be longer in the winter.
7.
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.
