REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE

qCharging the Battery

Your electric scooter may not have a fully charged battery. Therefore it is a good idea to charge the battery prior to use.

WARNING: Always disconnect your EcoSmart Metro

Initial charge time: 12 hours

Recharge time: up to 12 hours, even if the light turns green. Recommended maximum charging time is 24 hours.

Always charge the battery immediately after riding.

Fully charge battery before storing for extended periods of time.

Unplug charger from the wall outlet when not in use.

Failure to recharge battery periodically may result in a battery that will not accept a charge.

Make sure scooter power switch is turned OFF when unit is not in use. If the power switch is left on for an

extended period of time, the battery may reach a stage at which it will no longer hold a charge.

To ensure long battery life, never store the product in freezing or below freezing temperatures! Freezing will permanently damage the battery.

Run time: Up to 40 minutes of continuous ride time. Run time may vary depending on riding conditions, climate and/or proper maintenance.

Constant stopping and starting may shorten ride time.

Average battery life for a properly maintained unit is approx. 250 charge/discharge cycles.

Note: If your charger does not look like the one illustrated, your unit has been supplied with an alternative charger. The specifications and charging procedure would not change.

The charger has a small window with one LED to indicate the charge status. Refer to the illustration

on the charger unit for the actual “charging” and “charged” status indications for your model charger.

another outlet.

 

qInflating the Tires

Tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably lose some pressure between the point of manufacturing and your purchase. Low tire pressure can decrease the ride time of your unit.

1 Using a bicycle style pump equipped for a Schrader-type valve, inflate the tires to the PSI indicated on the sidewall of the tires.

Note: Low air pressure can decrease the ride time of your unit.

Chargers have built-in over-charge protection to prevent battery from being over-charged.

Be sure to properly align the groove on the charger input plug with the corresponding socket on the case; otherwise, no charging action will occur.

Note: The pressurized air supplies found at gasoline stations are designed to inflate high-volume automobile tires. If you decide to use such an air supply to inflate tires, first make sure the pressure gauge is working, then use very short bursts to inflate to the correct PSI. If you inadvertently over- inflate the tire, release the excess pressure immediately.
