10.3 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.

Only use the provided charger with this product.

CAUTION

New batteries MUST be fully charged prior to initial use of the powered scooter. DO NOT sit in the scooter while recharging the batteries.

ALWAYS charge new batteries before initial use or battery life will be reduced.

As a general rule, you should recharge your batteries as frequently as possible 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 five to nine hours of typical operation. Extensive use on inclines may substantially reduce per charge mileage.

1.Turn the key to the Off position.

2.Move the battery charger port cap to expose the battery charger port.

The battery charger port is located on the left side of the scooter.

3.Plug one end of the battery charger cable into the battery charger port.

4.Plug the other end of the battery charger cable into a 110-volt wall outlet (Detail “A”).

The battery charger power LED will be GREEN to indicate that the charger power is On.

The battery charging LED will be ORANGE while charging. If the battery charging LED turns GREEN immediately and the battery is not charged, contact a Dealer or Invacare for assistance. If the battery charging LED is Off, the battery is already fully charged.

5.Allow the batteries to charge until the charging LED turns GREEN.
