MAINTENANCE/CLEANING/STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
The Charge ‘N Ride™ is equipped with a QUICK charge feature. When the green LED begins to flash, the battery is “Ready to use”.
When the green LED turns solid and the red LED turns off, the battery is completely charged and is being maintained by the Charge ‘n
Ride™. It is important to do a COMPLETE charge after no more than two QUICK charges (example: Quick – Quick – Complete) to
ensure longer battery life.
J.
PROLONGED STORAGE
The Charge ‘N Ride™ will maintain the battery during extended periods of non-use. Simply leave the charger connected and it will
monitor the battery and charge as needed. During monitoring, the green LED will remain on. If the battery voltage drops to a preset level,
the charger will begin charging in the “Ready to use” state (the red LED will turn on and the green LED will flash until the battery is
completely charged).
Very little maintenance is required for the battery charger. Follow common sense in wiping the charger clean and store in a clean, dry area.
1.
After use, wipe any dirt or oil from connectors, cords, and
charger case with a dry cloth.
2.
Coil charger cords to prevent damage.
3.
Have any cracked or frayed cords replaced by a qualified
professional.
4.
Store battery charger in a clean, dry area.
L.
CIRCUIT BREAKER
This battery charger is equipped with a self-resetting circuit
breaker. This device protects the charger from temporary over-
loads. In the event of an overload, the circuit breaker will trip
open and after a short cooling off period will reset automatically.
This process is known as cycling and can be recognized by an
audible clicking sound.
CAUTION:
Cycling of the breaker is not a normal condition for
the charger and may indicate shorted battery cells or other bat-
tery fault. (See
TROUBLESHOOTING
).
