SECTION 12—BATTERIES

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 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

(5)to nine (9) hours of typical operation. Extensive use on inclines may substantially reduce per charge mileage.

WARNING

If the circuit breaker trips repeatedly, IMMEDIATELY unplug charger and contact dealer or a qualified technician.
