Charging Instructions

The smart charger included with your scooter will shut off when the scooter is fully charged. When the light on the charger is red, the scooter is still charging.
When the light turns green, this means the scooter is fully charged. Once fully charged, unplug within two hours to avoid overcharging.
The charging time varies depending on how charged the batteries are. If almost empty, the charge time may take up to 8 hours. If the red lights stays on for more than 8 hours, unplug the charger.

Batteries and Battery Maintenance

Only use deep-cycle batteries that are sealed lead acid and maintenance free for your scooter. Deep cycle batteries are specifically designed to provide power, drain down, and then accept a relatively quick charge. Lead acid batteries can be charged as needed Specification of the battery that we recommend:
Type: (4) 12 volt, 20 AH Sealed Lead Acid, Deep Cycle, Maintenance Free.

Note:

• Do not use automotive batteries. They are not designed to handle and long deep discharge and are unsafe for use in your scooter.
• The useful life of a battery is quite often a reflection of the care it receives.
• Always charge the batteries in a well-ventilated area.
• The charger is intended for indoor use only.
• Replace all batteries at the same time if weak.
• If the scooter will not be used for an extended period of time, arrange to have the batteries recharged at least once every month to avoid deterioration of the batteries.

Ramps and Curbs

1. Check that the ramp surface is roughened to prevent slipping. Never drive across a slope or turn sharply on a slope.
2. When driving up curbs, always check the height of the curb to ensure that it does not exceed 4” height.
3. Always go forward up ramps and curbs.
4. Avoid stopping completely when going over small objects or obstructions.

General

1. Always keep your feet on the scooter.

2.  Do not exceed the weight capacity of 400lbs.

3. Do not attempt to lift or move the scooter by any of its removable parts.
   Personal injury and damage to the scooter may result.

4. Never try to use your scooter beyond its limitations as described in the manual.

5. Do not operate your scooter if it is not functioning properly.

6. Do not connect any electrical or mechanical device to the scooter. Failure to obey this instruction may result in injury and will void the warranty.

7. Always comply with local laws and regulations.

Use While Under the Influence of Medication or Alcohol:

2. Do not operate your scooter while you are under the influence of alcohol as this may impair your ability to operate your scooter in a safe manner.
