For a safe and extended useful life, your XMB-400 Mobility Scooter, like any other motorized
vehicle, requires routine maintenance checks. Preventative maintenance is very important.
You can perform some of these regular checks yourself. If you follow the maintenance
checks in this section as scheduled, you can help ensure that your scooter gives you years of
trouble-free operation.
MOISTURE
You should always avoid positioning your scooter in damp areas of any kind. Direct
exposure to water or dampness could cause your scooter to malfunction electronically and
mechanically. Water can cause electrical components to corrode and the scooter’s frame to
rust.
Should your scooter come in contact with water:
1. Dry your scooter as thoroughly as possible with a towel.
2. Allow your scooter to sit in a warm, dry place to get unseen water to evaporate.
3. Make safe checks of all operations before using your scooter.
4. If any inconsistencies are found, contact an authorized dealer or X-Treme Scooters
technical support.
TEMPERATURE
Some of the parts of the scooter are susceptible to extreme changes in temperature. Always
keep your scooter in proper range of temperature.
In extreme cold temperature the batteries may become frozen. The specific temperature at
which they are frozen depends on a number of factors, such as battery charge, usage and
composition of the batteries.
Temperature above 45°C / 113°F may cause your scooter to operate at a reduced speed.
This reduced speed is a safety feature built into the controls that help prevent damage to the
motor and other electrical components.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
Avoid knocking or bumping the consoles.
Avoid prolonged exposure of your scooter to extreme conditions, such as heat,
cold or moisture.
Keep the tiller console clean.
Check all connectors to ensure that they are tight and secured properly.
Check all electrical connectors including the charger’s connectors. Make sure they
are all right and are not corroded. Batteries must sit flat in the battery case.
