Batteries and charging
Battery pack care plan
1. Only use the approved battery
charger compatible with the
vehicle to be charged.
2. Charge your batteries every
night, regardless of the amount
of use your mobility device has
had during the day.
3. Do not interrupt the charging
cycle.
4. If your mobility device is not
required for use, it should
remain connected to the
charger for a maximum of
12 hours. This will not damage
the batteries, so long as the
mains socket/plug is left
switched on.
Do not leave the charger still
connected to the batteries,
when the mains has been
switched off. This will
eventually deplete the
battery charge.
5. If you leave your vehicle for an
extended period (more than
5 days) first charge your
batteries for 12 hours, then
remove charger lead and
ensure the scooter is switched
off.
6. Failure to allow for recharge will
damage the batteries and can
lead to shortened distances and
permanent failure.
7. Do not top up the charge of
your batteries during the day.
Wait until the evening for a full
overnight charge.
Caution!
Always remember to remove
the plug from your scooter
after charging to prevent
driving away whilst attached.
The scooter can not be
operated when being
charged.
8. The battery pack needs to be
checked regularly for signs of
damage. If any damage is
apparent, contact your local
mobility dealer.
Caution!
Take care not to short circuit
the battery terminals. When
using metal tools, exercise
great care. Remove all
conductive jewellery (e.g.
watches, necklaces etc.)
before handling exposed
batteries.
9. Following all the eight points
above should result in a
healthier battery, greater range
for the vehicle user and a longer
life for your batteries.
