BATTERIES AND BATTERY CHARGER
FULLY CHARGE YOUR NEW BATTERIES BEFORE USE.
The RMA Whisper is supplied with two maintenance free 12 Amp, 12 Volt sealed
lead acid batteries. Performance of the batteries increases to reach their top level
after a number of battery charging cycles have been completed.
Battery performance can be affected by temperature, terrain, weight of user. The
battery level indicator is only a guide and can only be effective when the scooter
is moving, only then is the true discharge level displayed. When the scooter stops
the battery level indicator may return to full. The rear chassis cover with battery
pack can be removed from the scooter and charged separately. When charging the
battery pack when fitted to the scooter, the battery charger must be removed
before the scooter is started. To ensure there is no possibility of the scooter being
driven away with the battery charger still operating, the starting key should be
placed at the rear on top of the battery box. This practice will ensure collecting the
key to start will ensure the user remembers to detach the battery charger from the
scooter.
Warning: Remove the key when the battery charger is connected. Please
detach the battery charger before using the scooter
The battery charger supplied with your RMA Whisper should only be used with
this product and is only suitable for indoor use.
CHARGING
Remove the battery charger from the rear compartment. Plug the ‘Jack’ plug into
the charger socket inside the charger compartment. Plug the three pin plug into
the mains and switch on. A red light illuminates whilst charging. When charging
is complete, the light changes to green. Depending on the amount of battery
discharge, the charge time can take from 8 to 12 hours. Do not charge for longer
than 12 hours. Do not turn off the battery charger until the charging cycle is
complete.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
Cleaning your scooter
The shrouds and seat should be cleaned using a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive
cleaners or solvents as these will cause damage to the plastics. Do not spray water
onto your scooter as this may cause damage to the electrical components.
Maintaining your scooter
We suggest that your dealer checks your scooter once a year. It is good practice to
check the following items on a weekly basis.
·Check tyres are in good condition
·Check wheels spin freely
·Check moving parts, pivots and frame fixings for any signs of wear or damage.
·Check hand knobs are secure.
An authorised RMA scooter dealer must carry out repairs and the fitting of replacement parts.
