WARNING! If your off-board battery charger has not been tested and approved for outdoor use, then do not expose it to adverse or extreme weather conditions. If the battery charger is exposed to adverse or extreme weather conditions, then it must be allowed to adjust to the difference in environmental conditions before use indoors. Refer to the manual supplied with the battery charger for more information.

Follow these easy steps to charge your batteries safely:

1.Position your scooter close to a standard electrical outlet.

2.Remove the key from the key switch.

3.Make certain that the manual freewheel lever is in the drive (down) position.

4.Plug the 3-pin charger power cord into the off-board charger port. See figures 5 and 12.

5.Extend the charger power cord and plug it into the elec- trical 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 cord 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 use of the charger supplied as original equipment with your Pride product only. 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 cord are inserted fully.
