What type and size of battery should I use?

Your Travel Scooter requires two deep cycle batteries. We recommend only sealed, maintenance-free types such as AGM or Gel-Cell. Do not use wet-cell batteries, which have removable caps. Refer to the specifications table for size as batteries differ depending on manufacture.

WARNING! Corrosive chemicals are contained in batteries. Use only AGM or Gel- Cell batteries to reduce the risk of leakage or explosive conditions.

NOTE: Sealed batteries are not serviceable. Do not remove the caps.

How do I change a battery in my Travel Scooter?

MANDATORY! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. Wear goggles and gloves when handling batteries and wash hands after handling.

WARNING! Always use two batteries of the exact same type, chemistry, and amp- hour (Ah) capacity. Refer to the specifications table in this manual and in the manual supplied with the battery charger for recommended type and capacities.

WARNING! Do not mix old and new batteries. Always replace both batteries at the same time.

WARNING! Contact your Pride Provider if you have any questions regarding the batteries in your Travel Scooter.
