Suggestion
1.
Do not disconnect the charger cord
if charging is not completed.
Battery longevity will be seriously
reduced if the battery is repeatedly
used without being fully charged.
Therefore be sure to charge the
battery fully every time.
2.
Always complete the charging until
the LED light turns green. NEVER
stop charging before it is complete.
3.
When fully charged, the battery
charger will still trickle charge the
battery to ensure optimum range.
4.
If you do not use your powerpack
for a long time, it should be
charged at least every week to
keep the battery in a fully usable
condition.
5.
The ambient temperature will
affect charging time. Charging time
will be longer in the winter.
6.
After charging, do not leave the
charger socket plugged in to the
scooter, as this will cause a power
drain on the powerpack and
temporarily reduce its range.
7.
The batteries carry a twelve-month
manufacturer's
warranty.
This
warranty only covers issues relating
to manufacturing faults, and not
faults relating to failure to recharge
the batteries as instructed above.
Attention: Please follow the rules below
to avoid accidents while charging.

humid, raining or dewy.
3.
Never disassemble or modify the
charger.

Charger
The charger supplied has an LED which changes
colour depending on its status:
If the LED is lit ORANGE then the charger is
switched on and charging
If the LED is lit GREEN then the charger is
switched on and has finished the bulk of its
charging and the batteries can be used. However,
we recommend that you leave the charger
charging for a couple of hours after the green
LED has lit. This will maintain and probably
increase the capacity of your batteries.
The LED will also illuminate GREEN if the charger
is switched on but not connected to the
batteries.
Batteries
Do not expose the battery pack to temperatures
below -10º or above 50ºC when charging or
storing.
The batteries are maintenance free and there is
no need to inspect the battery liquid or refill.
You are required to charge the batteries on a
regular basis. Even if the powerpack is not used,
it should be charged at least once a week.
The battery pack contains one 12V 20ah batteries.
The battery supplied with the PowerStroll is
classified as safe for air travel by compliance with
IATA special provision A67.
