Follow these easy steps to charge your batteries safely:
1. Position the front of your scooter close to a standard
electrical outlet.
2. Remove the key from the key switch.
3. Make sure that the manual freewheel lever is in the
drive position.
4. Plug the 3-pin charger power lead into the off-board
charger port. See figures 5 and 12.
5. Extend the charger power lead and plug it into the
electrical outlet. We recommend that you charge the
batteries for at least 8 to 14 hours.
6. When the batteries are fully charged, unplug the
charger power lead from the electrical outlet and then
from the off-board charger port.
WARNING! The LED lights on the charger
indicate different charger conditions at
various times: charger power on,
charging in progress, charging
complete. If the LED does not indicate
that charging is complete within 24
hours, unplug the charger from the
outlet and contact your Pride Provider.
Refer to the manual supplied with the
charger for a complete explanation of
these indicators.

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. Therefore, when the charger is plugged in, it maintains the charge on your scooter’s bat-
teries, 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
chemical formulation of specific batteries. For the safest and most efficient charging of your scooter’s
batteries we recommend only use of the charger supplied as original equipment with your Pride product.
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 lead are inserted fully.
