V . B A T T E R I E S A N D C H A R G I N G

Your Travel Scooter requires two long-lasting, 12-volt, deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. They are recharged by the supplied off-board charging system.

Charge your Travel Scooter’s batteries for 8 to 14 hours prior to using it for the first time. Keep the batteries fully charged to keep your Travel Scooter running smoothly.

READING YOUR BATTERY VOLTAGE

The battery condition meter on the tiller console indicates the approximate strength of your batteries using a color code. From right to left on the meter, green indicates fully charged batteries, yellow a draining charge, and red indicates that an immediate recharge is necessary. See figure 9. To ensure the highest accuracy, the battery condition meter should be checked while operating your Travel Scooter at full speed on a dry, level surface.
