Getting to Know Your Scooter
Charge the batteries completely (8-12 hours) prior to first use.
The Scooter is supplied two 34Amp, 12 Volt sealed lead acid batteries. The
batteries are situated under the front of the seat and can be removed by lifting them
away from the chassis.
Low temperatures, rough terrain and the weight of the user can affect battery
performance. Your battery gauge is a guide only to the level of charge remaining in
your batteries and will give its best indication while the scooter is moving.
Battery Charger
The battery charger is a 5-amp switch type off board. The battery charging ports are
located on the left side of the tiller (see images). *This special feature allows the
batteries to be charged independently of the main scooter.
Before using your scooter for the first time be sure to fully charge the batteries, this
may take up to 12 hours.
To charge the batteries connect the 3-pin male charger plug into the charging
socket on the tiller. Plug the 3-pin mains plug into a wall socket and switch on.
A constant red light will show when the battery charger is connected and charging
is underway (The green LED will flash if there is a break in the connection).
The red light indicates that the batteries are receiving charge.
The green LED will light when the charging cycle is complete. Always turn off
mains power to the charger before disconnecting the plug from the tiller.
Caution! Do not charge the batteries for longer than 12 hours. Always charge
the batteries in a well-ventilated indoor area. You must still maintain charging
the batteries even if the scooter is not to be used for a prolonged period of
time (2 to 3 weeks). Failure to do so could result in permanent damage and
render the batteries unusable. Wherever possible do not interrupt the charge
cycle until the batteries are fully charged. Continual interruption can
permanently damage the batteries. If the charging lead should get damaged
discontinue use immediately and seek a replacement from your dealer. ONLY
USE THE CHARGER SUPPLIED WITH YOUR SCOOTER. Do not leave the
charger plugged into to the charger port after the charge is complete.
ALWAYS remove the keys from the scooter when charging.
Disposing and recycling of used batteries
Batteries must always be recycled correctly. Do not dispose of them with your
domestic refuge.
For further information regarding your nearest recycling facility please contact your
local authority. z
