Any electromechanical device occasionally requires some troubleshooting. However, most of the problems that may arise can usually be solved with a bit of thought and common sense. Many of these problems occur because the batteries are not fully charged or because the batteries are worn down and can no longer hold a charge.

If you experience any problems with your scooter that you are unable to handle, immediately contact your autho- rized Pride provider for information, maintenance, and service.
