10.0 Operation - Batteries and Charging
10.1 General Information and Instructions on Charging
Your Scooter requires 1 x lithium battery that is sealed and maintenance free. The
battery is recharged by the supplied off-board charging system.
• Fully charge your travel scooter’s battery for at least 10 to 12 hours prior to using it
for the first time. The new battery will be at its full capacity after having run through
approx. 10-20 charging cycles (break-in period). This break-in period is necessary to
fully activate the battery for maximum performance and longevity.
• Keep the battery fully charged to keep your scooter running smoothly. Charge the
battery daily after every discharge even after partly discharge. Depending on the
level of discharge, it can take up to 12 hours until the battery is fully charged again.
• If the battery indicator has reached the red LED range, charge the battery for 16
hours minimum, ignoring the charge complete display!
• Even if the scooter is unused for long period of time, the battery should have a 24
hour charge once a week to make sure that it is fully charged.
• Do not cycle your battery at a low state of charge without regularly recharging it
fully.
• Do not charge your battery under extreme temperatures. High temperatures above
30°C are not recommended for charging as well as low temperatures below 10°C.
• You cannot overcharge the battery when using the charger supplied with your
vehicle, or a charger that has been approved by One Rehab.
• Protect your charger from sources of heat such as heaters and direct sunlight. It
the battery charger overheats, charging current will be reduced and the charging
process delayed.
