BATTERY CHARGING COMPONENTS

The batteries, off-board battery charger port, and main circuit breaker (reset button) make up the battery charging components. See figure 7.

Batteries (Not Shown)

The batteries store the electrical energy needed to power the scooter. The scooter is equipped with an easy to remove battery pack located within the battery compartment. To view the battery pack, remove the battery compartment lid.

Off-board Battery Charger Port

The off-board battery charger plugs into your scooter by means of the off-board battery charger port.

Main Circuit Breaker (Reset Button)

When the voltage in your scooter’s batteries becomes low or the scooter is heavily strained because of excessive loads or steep inclines, the main circuit breaker may trip to protect the motor and electronics from damage.

νThe main circuit breaker reset button pops out when the breaker trips.

νWhen the breaker trips, the entire electrical system of your scooter shuts down.

νAllow a minute or two for your scooter’s electronics to “rest.”

νPush in the reset button to reset the main circuit breaker.

νIf the main circuit breaker trips frequently, you may need to charge your batteries more often. You may also need to have your authorized Pride Provider perform a load test on your scooter’s batteries.

νIf the main circuit breaker trips repeatedly, see your authorized Pride Provider for service.
