6 . BATTERY CHARGING AND CARE

♦The batteries carry a eight-month of manufacturer's warranty. This warranty only covers issues relating to manufacturing faults, and not faults relating to failure to recharge the batteries as instructed above.

& Suggestion – How to maximize your batteries efficiency and service life

1.Fully recharge your new battery before its first time use.

2.Be sure to charge the battery fully every time. The battery life will be seriously shortened or decayed if the battery is repeatedly used without being fully charged.

3.Always complete the charging until the orange LED light turns green. NEVER stop charging before it is complete.

4.Keep your batteries fully charged whenever possible.

5.If you do not use your scooter for a long time, it should be charged at least every week to keep the battery in a fully usable condition.

6.The ambient temperature will affect charging time. Charging time will be longer in the winter.

7.After charging, do not leave the charger socket plugged in to the scooter, as this will cause a power drain on the scooter and temporarily reduce its range.
