battery.

9. Inside the battery box, there is a small bag of nuts and square bolts. Place the 2 red wires

found behind the seat onto the positive (+) side of the battery. Place the screw through the holes

on the 2 red wires and place the squire nut under the positive connection and screw together

tightly. A lose connection will cause the scooter not to start.

10. Do the same for the black wire (this wire may also be green), but screw it into the negative

(-) side of the battery.

Replenishing the battery fluid:

The battery will corrode and discharge quicker if it is not maintained. The battery fluid should

be checked at least once per month. The fluid level should always be within the upper and lower

levels marked on the battery.

If the battery fluid is low, use only DISTILLED WATER if refilling is necessary.
