FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How does the charger work?
When your scooter’s battery voltage is low, the charger works harder, sending more electrical current to the
batteries to bring up their charge. As the batteries approach a full charge, the charger sends less and less electrical
current. When the batteries are fully charged, the current sent from the charger is at nearly zero amperage. There-
fore, when the charger is plugged in, it maintains the charge on your scooter’s batteries, but does not overcharge
them. Refer to the manual supplied with the battery charger for charging instructions.
Can I use a different charger?
Chargers are selected precisely for particular applications and are especially matched to the type, size, and chemi-
cal formulation of specific batteries. For the safest and most efficient charging of your scooter’s batteries, we
recommend use of the charger supplied as original equipment with your Pride product only. Any charging method
resulting in batteries being charged individually is especially prohibited.
What if my scooter’s batteries won’t charge?
!
Ensure the red (+) and black (-) battery cables are connected properly to the battery terminals.
!
Ensure both battery harnesses that extend from the batteries are plugged into their mating harness leading to the
charger.
!
Ensure both ends of the charger power cord are inserted fully.

Follow these easy steps to charge your batteries
safely:
1. Position your scooter close to a standard electrical
outlet.
2. Remove the key from the key switch.
3. Make certain that the manual freewheel lever is in
the drive (down) position.
4. Plug the 3-pin charger power cord into the off-board
charger port. See figures 6 and 12.
5. Extend the charger power cord and plug it into the
electrical outlet. We recommend that you charge
the batteries for 8 to 14 hours.
6. When the batteries are fully charged, unplug the
charger power cord from the electrical outlet and
then from the off-board charger port.
NOTE: The LED lights on the charger indicate different charger conditions at various times: charger
power on, charging in process, and charging complete. Refer to the manual supplied with the charger
for a complete explanation of these indicators.
NOTE: There is a charger inhibit function on your scooter. The scooter will not run and the battery
condition meter will not operate while the batteries are charging.
