could cause the motor to overheat. If the scooter suddenly stops
running, wait a few seconds and then push the breaker to reset the
circuit. Correct the conditions that caused the breaker to trip and
avoid repeatedly tripping the breaker.
Charge the battery. A new battery should be charged for at least 6
respectively 9 hours (Lead Acid / Lithium) before using the scooter
for the fi rst time and up to 6 respectively 9 hours (Lead Acid /
Lithium) after each subsequent use.
Check all connectors. Make sure the charger connector is tightly
plugged into the charging port and that the charger is plugged
into the wall.
Make sure power fl ow to the wall is on.
Even with proper care, a rechargeable battery does not last forever.
Average battery life is 1 to 2 years depending on scooter use and
conditions. Replace only with a replacement battery.
Use only on solid, fl at, clean and dry surfaces such as pavement
or level ground.
The tires are infl ated when shipped, but they invariably will loose
some pressure between the point of manufacturing and your
purchase.
Make sure you do not overload the electric scooter by allowing
more than one rider at a time, exceeding the 120 kg maximum
weight limit, going up a hill or towing objects behind the scooter. If
the scooter is overloaded, the circuit breaker may trip and shut off
power to the motor. Correct the riding conditions that caused the
overload, wait a few seconds and then push the breaker to reset
the circuit. Avoid repeatedly tripping the circuit breaker.
Check all wires around the motor and all connectors to make sure
they are tight.
Contact your local authorized service center for diagnosis and
repair.
