suddenly stopped |
|

Solution
Charge the battery. A new battery should have been charged for at least 12 hours before using the scooter for the first time and up to 8 hours after each subsequent use.
Check all connectors. Make sure the charger connector is tightly plugged into the charging port, and that the charger is plugged into the wall.
Make sure power flow to the wall outlet is on.
You may check to see if your charger is working by using a volt meter or asking your local Razor authorized service center to test your charger for you.
Kick start to 3mph then twist the throttle to start motor.
Check all wires and connectors to make sure they are tight.
The circuit breaker (next to on/off switch) will automatically shut off the power if the motor is overloaded.
An excessive overload, such as too heavy a rider or too steep a hill, could cause the motor to overheat. If the scooter suddenly stops running, wait a few seconds and then push the breaker to reset the circuit. Correct the conditions that caused the breaker to trip and avoid repeatedly tripping the breaker.

Make sure power flow to the wall outlet is on.
Even with proper care, a rechargeable battery does not last forever. Average battery life is 1 to 2 years depending on scooter use and conditions. Replace only with a Razor replacement battery.
Refer to adjusting the brakes instructions on page 4.
Use only on solid, flat, clean and dry surfaces such as pavement or level ground.
The tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably will lose some pressure between the point of manufacturing and your purchase. Refer to instructions on page 5 of this manual to properly inflate tires.
Make sure you do not overload the scooter by allowing more than one rider at a time, exceeding the E100 120 lb. or E200 and E300 220 lb. maximum weight limit, going up a hill or towing objects behind the scooter. If the scooter is overloaded, the circuit breaker may trip and shut off power to the motor. Correct the driving conditions that caused the overload, wait a few seconds, and then push the breaker to reset the circuit. Avoid repeatedly tripping the circuit breaker.
E100: Use your fingers to twist the adjuster in either direction until wheel is centered between pads
E200/E300: Adjust brake at lever (page 4) to allow wheel to spin without brake contact.
