Battery Disposal
•
The 6-volt battery will eventually lose the ability to
hold a charge. Depending on the amount of use,
and varying conditions, the battery should operate
for one to three years. If the battery will not
recharge, you must obtain a new 6-volt battery.
•
The 6-volt battery contains lead acid (electrolyte)
and must be disposed of properly and legally.
•
DO NOT
throw the battery away with your regular household trash! It is illegal in
most areas to incinerate lead acid batteries or dispose of them in landfills.
•
If you must dispose of an exhausted battery, take it to a federally or state-approved
lead acid battery recycler, such as an authorized service center or your local
automotive
battery retailer. Call
Pacific Cycle, Inc.

for an

may offer additional
information about the disposal of lead acid batteries in your
area. In the states of
Florida and Minnesota, it is illegal to dispose of a lead acid
battery in the municipal
waste stream.

of properly. For further information, please

Maintaining Your Scooter
•
Periodically check to make sure the seat screw and wheel nuts are tight. Make sure the
battery bracket is securely in place and the plastic parts are not cracked or broken.

Occasionally use a lightweight oil to lubricate moving parts such as wheels and the
steering linkages.
•
Park the Scooter indoors or cover it with a tarp to protect it from wet weather.
•
Keep the Scooter away from sources of heat, such as stoves and heaters. Plastic parts
may melt.
•
ADULTS ONLY:
Recharge the battery after each use. Recharge the battery at least
once a month when the Scooter is not being used. See pages 4-5 for instructions
about recharging the battery.

DO NOT
wash the Scooter with a hose.
DO NOT
wash the Scooter with soap and
water.
