7.3 Batteries, Fuses and Tires
Batteries
Refer to 6.3 BATTERIES in 6. BATTERIES AND CHARGER.
Fuses
There are two fuses on your scooter. One is located inside of the control panel (3A); the
other is near the batteries (5A). If the ignition is turned ON and the battery indicator does
not light up, have your KARMA dealer check the fuses as one may be broken.
CAUTION
：
Ask for help from your KARMA Scooter dealer for inspecting or replacing the fuse(s),
since the rear casing or control panel cover must be removed to replace a fuse. An
electrical system check must also be performed to assure no damage has occurred.
Tires
The condition of the tires is affected by the way you drive and use your scooter.
Inspecting Tire Tread: please check the tread depth regularly. Replace the tires when
the tread depth is less than 0.5mm.
CAUTION
：
When the tread depth is below 0.5mm, the tire does not have good traction. This may
lead to vehicle slippage and makes braking distances much longer. Thus, go to your
Karma dealer to replace the tire as soon as possible if it has less than a 0.5mm tread
depth.
The tire pressure must be kept at between 40-50 PSI (approx. 1.8kg/cm or 2.75~3.45
bar=275-345kPa) for the best drive range (maximum distance traveled per charge) and
usage/handling.
7.4 General Maintenance
◎
You must maintain the vehicle more frequently if you drive on grass, sand or gravel
roads often.
◎
Do not use water, oil or other chemical solutions to clean your scooter. Be sure NOT
to spray the vehicle with water, as not to damage the electronic components and PC
circuit board. Please clean the vehicle by wiping it with either a dry or moist cloth.
◎
Please take the vehicle to an authorized KARMA Scooter dealer for repairs and
adjustments. Improper adjustments could lead to scooter malfunction or an accident.
◎
Please use a soft and dry cloth to keep your scooter clean. Use moderate or mild
detergent to clean the scooter, if necessary.
