FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How does the charger work?
When your scooter’s battery voltage is low, the charger works harder, sending more electrical current
to the batteries to bring up their charge. As the batteries approach a full charge, the charger sends
less and less electrical current. When the batteries are fully charged, the current sent from the charger
is at nearly zero amperage. Therefore, when the charger is plugged in, it maintains the charge on
your scooter’s batteries, but does not overcharge them. Refer to the manual supplied with the battery
charger for charging instructions.
Can I use a different charger?
Chargers are selected precisely for particular applications and are especially matched to the type,
size, and chemical formulation of specific batteries. For the safest and most efficient charging of your
scooter’s batteries, we recommend use of the charger supplied as original equipment with your product
only. Any charging method resulting in batteries being charged individually is especially prohibited.
What if my scooter’s batteries will not charge?
Ensure the red (+) and black (-) battery cables are connected properly to the battery terminals.
Ensure both ends of the charger power cord are inserted fully.
Ensure the circuit breaker is not tripped.
