BATTERY CHARGING

BATTERIES

Warning:

Batteries are heavy, always handle with two hands.

You may require assistance. Do not allow metal tools to touch
both battery terminals together, this will cause an electrical
short and may damage the battery and injure you. Always
cover the battery terminals with the red/black plastic covers.

Your

has a lot of power for a small Scooter.

Keeping it working to its maximum potential means that
its two batteries must be maintained with full power.
Nightly recharging, after use, will help you to give them a
longer life and will ensure your

is always ready

to go when you are.

Your

is fitted with two sealed maintenance-

free Batteries, especially designed for motive traction use.
This means that you do not have to worry about topping up
the cells.

Do not attempt to remove the safety valves

situated in the top of the battery. Failure to observe this
warning will invalidate your battery guarantee.

Your

batteries are virtually maintenance-free

because the electrolyte is immobilized in a special form and
therefore will not leak out, even if the battery is accidentally
overturned.
Because your

batteries are sealed they are more

likely to be accepted for carriage on aircraft. Please consult
your carrier prior to departure, as they will need advance
warning that you wish them to carry batteries.
