Battery and Charging Information
The range of your vehicle
Most manufacturers of mobility products state the range of their vehicles either in the
sales literature or within the Owner’s Manual.
The range stated sometimes differs from manufacturer to manufacturer even though
the battery size is the same. We measure the range of our vehicles in a consistent and
uniform manner, but variances still occur due to motor efciencies and overall product
load weight.
The range gures are calculated to I.S.O. Standard 7176, Part 4: Scooter Energy
Consumption Theoretical Range.
The range gures stated should be seen as a theoretical maximum and could be
reduced if any single, or combination, of the following circumstances occur:
1. User weight heavier than 100kg.
2. Batteries whose age and condition are less than perfect.
3. The terrain is difcult or unsuitable e.g. very hilly, sloping, muddy ground, gravel,
grass, snow and ice.
4. The vehicle climbs ramps regularly.
5. The ambient temperature is very hot or very cold.
6. Damage occurring to one or more tyres.
7. Lots of start/stop driving.
8. Also thick pile carpets within the home can affect range.
Always check that the batteries are sufciently charged before setting off.
Always ensure that your batteries are in good condition and that no leakage has
occurred.
Do not expose any part of your charger, battery or scooter to direct heat (i.e. gas res or
naked ame).
Note: If you are out on your scooter and the battery gauge is reading low the
remaining range can be increased slightly by decreasing the maximum available
speed.
