BATTERIES/CHARGING

PROCEDURE 4	BATTERIES/CHARGING

NOTE: Upon completion, these areas should be shiny, not dull.

3. Carefully dust off all metal particles.

CHARGING THE BATTERIES

WARNING

Never attempt to recharge the batteries by attaching cables directly to the battery terminals or clamps.

DO NOT attempt to recharge the batteries and operate the powered scooter at the same time.

CAUTION

New batteries MUST be fully charged prior to initial use of the powered scooter.

Always charge new batteries before initial use or battery life will be re- duced.

As a general rule, you should recharge your batteries as frequently as pos- sible to assure the longest possible life and to minimize required charging time. Plan to recharge them when you do not anticipate using the powered scooter.

The range per battery charge using recommended batteries should be approximately 5 to 9 hours of typical operation. Extensive use on inclines may substantially reduce per charge mileage.

WARNING

NEVER leave the charger unattended when the circuit breaker (charger) is tripping ON and OFF.

NOTE: If performing charging procedures independently, READ and CAREFULLY follow the individual instructions for each charger (supplied or purchased).

NOTE: If charging instructions are not supplied, consult a qualified service technician for proper procedures.
