VI. BATTERIES AND CHARGING
Your Dynamo uses two long-lasting, 12-volt, deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free.
They are recharged by an onboard 3 amp charging system designed for ease of use and convenience. See
figure 7.
n Charge your Dynamos batteries prior to using it for the first time.
n Keep your batteries fully charged to keep your Dynamo running trouble free.

FOLLOW THESE EASY STEPS TO
CHARGE YOUR BATTERIES SAFELY:
1. Position your scooter close to a standard wall outlet.
2. Remove the key from the control console assembly.
3. Make certain that the freewheel lever is pushed to
the drive (forward) position.
4. Extend the charger power cord and plug it into the
wall outlet. See figure 9.
NOTE: There is a charger inhibit on your scooter. The
scooter will not run and the battery condition meter will
not operate while the batteries are charging.
5. It is recommended that you charge your batteries for
8 to14 hours. You can check this periodically by the
battery condition meter on the control console as-
sembly. However, you must first unplug the battery
charger and then insert the key. The battery condi-
tion meter on the control console assembly indicates
the approximate strength of your batteries. When
fully charged, the meter reads 24 volts. See figure
10.
6. When the batteries are fully charged, unplug the
charger power cord from the wall outlet and place it
back in the charger cord storage tray.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
(FAQS)
How does the charger work?
When your Dynamos battery voltage is low, the charger
works harder and sends more electrical current to the
batteries to bring up their charge. As the voltage of the batteries approaches a full charge, the charger sends
less and less electrical current to the batteries. When the batteries are fully charged, the current sent to them
from the charger is at nearly zero amperage. Therefore, when the charger is plugged in, it maintains the
