NOTE: Keep your battery fully charged and avoid deeply discharging your battery. Refer to the manual supplied
with the battery charger for charging instructions.
NOTE: Your scooter’s battery should only be charged at room temperature. Avoid charging the battery in
extreme temperature environments such as hot cars, windowsills, hot or cold garages. Avoid heat-generating
environments. Refer to the manual supplied with the battery charger for charging instructions.
How can I ensure maximum battery life?
Lithium-Ion batteries perform best with short or interval charging and partial discharges. Protect your scooter
and battery from extreme heat or cold. A battery that is regularly and deeply discharged, infrequently charged,
stored in extreme temperatures, or stored without a full charge may be permanently damaged, causing unreliable
performance and limited service life. The following are temperature suggestions for operation, storage, and
charging of your Lithium-Ion battery.
NOTE: The useful life of a battery is quite often a refl ection of the care it receives.
Recommended operational temperature range:
14°F/-10°C to 122°F/50°C (optimal range is 59°F/15°C to 77°F/25°C)
Recommended storage temperature range:
14°F/-10°C to 77°F/25°C (optimal range is 59°F/15°C to 77°F/25°C)
Recommended charging temperature range:
32°F/0°C to 104°F/40°C (optimal temperature is 68°F/20°C)
NOTE: To extend battery life, always turn off the scooter and remove the key when not in use.
How can I get maximum range or distance per charge?
Rarely will you have ideal driving conditions—smooth, fl at, hard driving surfaces with no wind or curves. Often,
you will face hills, sidewalk cracks, uneven and loosely packed surfaces, curves, and wind, all of which aff ect the
distance or running time per battery charge. Below are a few suggestions for obtaining the maximum range per
battery charge:
Lithium-Ion batteries perform best with short or interval charging and partial discharges.
Plan your route ahead to avoid as many hills, cracked, broken, or soft surfaces as possible.
Limit your baggage weight to essential items.
Try to maintain an even speed while your scooter is in motion.
Avoid stop-and-go driving.
If storing your battery for more than thirty (30) days, we recommend charging your battery once per month to
improve battery performance and battery life. Follow the charging instruction as recommended in the manual
supplied with the battery charger.
Make sure all harness connections are secured properly.
Operating your scooter at a reduced speed will improve range.
What type and size of battery should I use?
Your scooter requires one Lithium-Ion battery box. Refer to the product specifi cation insert supplied
with your owner’s manual in the owner’s package.
WARNING! Corrosive chemicals are contained in batteries. Replace an original Lithium-Ion
battery box with an approved replacement Lithium-Ion battery box to reduce the risk of
leakage or explosive conditions.
NOTE: Sealed battery boxes are not serviceable.
