FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQS)

How does the charger work?

When your scooter’s battery voltage is low, the charger works harder, sending more electrical current to the batteries to bring up their charge. As the batteries approach a full charge, the charger sends less and less electrical current. When the batteries are fully charged, the current sent from the charger is at nearly zero amperage. There- fore, when the charger is plugged in, it maintains the charge on your scooter’s batteries, but does not overcharge them. We do not recommend that you charge your scooter’s batteries for more than 24 consecutive hours.

What if my scooter’s batteries won’t charge?

νEnsure the red (+) and black (-) battery leads are connected properly to the battery terminals.

νEnsure both ends of the charger power cord are inserted fully.

Can I use a different charger?

For the safest, most efficient, and balanced charging of your scooter’s batteries, we prefer and highly recommend simultaneous charging of both batteries with the off-board battery charger supplied with yoru scooter.

How often must I charge the batteries?

Two major factors must be considered when deciding how often to charge your scooter’s batteries:

νAll day scooter use on a daily basis.

νInfrequent or sporadic scooter use.

With these considerations in mind, you can determine how often and for how long you should charge your scooter’s batteries. We designed the off-board battery charger so that it will not overcharge your scooter’s batteries. How- ever, you may encounter some problems if you do not charge your batteries often enough and if you do not charge them on a regular basis. Following the guidelines below will provide safe and reliable battery operation and charging.

νIf you use your scooter daily, charge its batteries as soon as you finish using it for the day.Your scooter will be ready each morning to give you a full day of service. We recommend that you charge your scooter’s batteries for 8 to 14 hours after daily use.

νIf you use your scooter once a week or less, charge its batteries at least once a week for 12 to 14 hours at a time.

νKeep your scooter’s batteries fully charged.

νAvoid deeply discharging your scooter’s batteries.

How can I ensure maximum battery life?

Fully charged deep-cycle batteries provide reliable performance and extended battery life. Keep your scooter’s batteries fully charged whenever possible. Batteries that are regularly and deeply discharged, infrequently charged, or stored without a full charge may be permanently damaged, causing unreliable performance and limited service life.

What about public transportation?

If you intend to use public transportation with your scooter, you must contact the transportation provider in ad- vance to determine their specific requirements.
