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

Your scooter requires two sealed, maintenance free, 12-volt, 32 AH bat- teries.

νCharge the batteries prior to using your scooter for the first time.

νKeep the batteries fully charged to keep your 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. See figure 7. Green indicates fully charged batteries, yellow indicates a draining charge, and red indi- cates that an immediate recharge is necessary. To check the charge, you must first unplug the charger power cord and power up your scooter. To ensure the highest accuracy, the battery condition meter should be checked while operating your scooter at full speed on a dry, level surface.

You can also check the charge using the ammeter located on the rear of the scooter. The charger power cord must be plugged into a standard wall outlet in order to obtain a reading. When the amperage reading is at or near zero amps, the battery charging is complete. See figure 8.

CHARGING YOUR BATTERIES

Follow these easy steps to charge your batteries safely:

PROHIBITED! Never use an extension cord to plug in your battery charger. Plug the charger directly into a properly wired standard wall outlet.

PROHIBITED! Removal of the grounding prong can create an electrical hazard. If necessary properly install an approved 3-pronged adaptor to an electrical outlet having 2-pronged plug access. Failure to heed could result in personal injury and or property damage.

WARNING! Ensure that both ends of the charger power cord are clean and dry before plugging it into the charger power cord receptacle or a wall socket.

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

2.Remove the key from the key switch.

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

4.Plug the charger power cord into the charger power cord receptacle.

5.Extend the charger power cord and plug it into the wall outlet. It is recommended that you charge your batteries for 8 to 14 hours.

6.When the batteries are fully charged, unplug the charger power cord from the wall outlet and then from the charger power cord receptacle.

NOTE: There is a charger inhibit function on your scooter. The scooter will not run and the battery condition meter will not operate while the batteries are charging.
