I. SAFETY
BRAKING INFORMATION
Your scooter is equipped with these powerful brake systems:
Regenerative: Uses electricity to rapidly slow the vehicle when the throttle control lever returns to the
cener/stop position.
Disc Park Brake: Activates mechanically after regenerative braking slows the vehicle to near stop or
when power is removed from the system for any reason.
(Optional) Handbrake: This lever provides you with emergency stopping power. See II. “Your
Scooter.”
HANDBRAKE LEVER (OPTIONAL)
The handbrake lever contains hydraulic fluid. When the lever is depressed, the fluid is pushed through the
brake line to engage the brake pads against the brake discs. The handbrake lever is a completely sealed
unit, meaning that the hydraulic fluid should not leak; however, there are certain safety measures that
should be taken if the handbrake lever becomes cracked or damaged.
Do not touch spilled material unless wearing protective equipment, such as safety goggles and gloves.
For small spills, cover the material with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible absorbent material.
Once absorbed, enclose the material in a plastic bag and contact your local waste disposal agency for
proper disposal measures. Do not expose the material to waterways or sewers.
If the eyes are exposed, check for and remove contact lenses. Flush eyes with cool, clean, low-
pressure water while occasionally lifting and lowering the eyelids. Seek medical attention if excessive
tearing, redness or pain persists.
If the skin is exposed, remove all contaminated clothing. Wipe off excess material and wash exposed
skin with soap and water. Seek medical attention if skin appears damaged or if irritation persists.
Thoroughly clean contaminated clothing before reuse. Discard contaminated leather goods.
If ingested, do not induce vomiting or give anything to drink unless directed to by a physician. Never
give anything by mouth to a person who is not fully conscious. Seek medical attention immediately.
If inhaled, move the affected individual to fresh air. If the affected individual is not breathing,
immediately begin rescue breathing. If breathing is difficult, 100% humidified oxygen should be
administered by a qualified individual. Seek medical attention immediately and keep the affected
individual warm and at rest.
If ignited, use dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide or water fog to extinguish.
WARNING! Do not modify the handbrake lever or attempt to replace the hydraulic fluid.
If damage occurs, follow the safety information in this section and contact your
authorized dealer for handbrake replacement. The hydraulic handbrake should only be
serviced or replaced by your authorzed dealer.
WARNING! The handbrake contains hydraulic fluid that can cause mild skin, eye and
nasal/bronchial irritation. Do not attempt to adjust or service the handbrake without
proper protective equipment such as safety goggles and gloves and wash hands after
handling.

CHARGING YOUR BATTERIES

15
Mid-size Scooter Series
III. BATTERIES AND CHARGING
Follow the 6 easy steps in figure 8 to charge your batteries safely:
WARNING! The LED lights on the charger indicate different charger conditions at various
times. If the LED does not indicate that charging is complete within 24 hours, unplug the
charger from the outlet and contact your Provider. Refer to the operating instructions
supplied with the charger for a complete explanation of these indicators.
NOTE: There is a charger inhibit function on your scooter. The scooter will not run and the battery
condition meter will not operate while the batteries are charging.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How does the charger work?
When your scooter’s battery voltage is low, the charger works harder, sending more electrical current to
the batteries to bring up their charge. As the batteries approach a full charge, the charger sends less and
less electrical current. When the batteries are fully charged, the current sent from the charger is at nearly
zero amperage. Therefore, when the charger is plugged in, it maintains the charge on your scooter’s
batteries, but does not overcharge them. Refer to the manual supplied with the battery charger for charging
instructions.
Can I use a different charger?
Chargers are selected precisely for particular applications and are especially matched to the type, size
and chemical formulation of specific batteries. For the safest and most efficient charging of your
scooter’s batteries we recommend only use of the charger supplied as original equipment with your
product. Any charging method resulting in batteries being charged individually is especially
prohibited.

III. BATTERIES AND CHARGING
What if my scooter’s batteries won’t charge?
Ensure the red (+) and black (-) battery cables are connected properly to the battery terminals.
Ensure both battery harnesses that extend from the batteries are plugged into their mating harness
leading to the charger.
Ensure both ends of the charger power lead are inserted fully.
How often must I charge the batteries?
Two major factors must be considered when deciding how often to charge your scooter’s batteries:
All day scooter use on a daily basis.
Infrequent or sporadic scooter use.
With these considerations in mind, you can determine how often and for how long you should charge your
scooter’s batteries. The battery charger was designed so that it will not overcharge your scooter’s batteries.
However, you may encounter some problems if you do not charge your batteries often enough and if you
do not charge them on a regular basis. Following the guidelines below will provide safe and reliable
battery operation and charging.
If you use your scooter daily, charge its batteries as soon as you finish using it for the day. Your
scooter will be ready each morning. We recommend that you charge your scooter’s batteries for at least
8 to 14 hours after daily use. We recommend that you charge the batteries for an additional 4 hours
after the battery charger indicates that charging is complete.
If you use your scooter once a week or less, charge its batteries at least once a week for at least 24
hours.
NOTE: Keep your batteries fully charged and avoid deeply discharging your batteries. Refer to the
manual supplied with the battery charger for charging instructions. We recommend charging your
batteries for at least 48 continuous hours once per month to improve battery performance and battery
life.
How can I get maximum range or distance per charge?
Rarely will you have ideal driving conditions—smooth, flat, hard driving surfaces with no wind or curves.
Often, you will face hills, pavement cracks, uneven and loosely packed surfaces, curves and wind, all of
which affect the distance or running time per battery charge. Below are a few suggestions for obtaining
the maximum range per battery charge.
Always fully charge your scooter’s batteries prior to daily use.
Maintain but do not exceed the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on each tire.
Plan your route ahead to avoid as many hills, cracked, broken or soft surfaces as possible.
Limit your baggage weight to essential items.
Try to maintain an even speed while your scooter is in motion.
Avoid stop-and-go driving.
We recommend charging your batteries for at least 48 continuous hours once per month to improve
battery performance and battery life.
Make sure all harness connections are secured properly.
How can I ensure maximum battery life?
Fully charged deep-cycle batteries provide reliable performance and extended battery life. Keep your
scooter’s batteries fully charged whenever possible. Protect your scooter and batteries from extreme heat
or cold. Batteries that are regularly and deeply discharged, infrequently charged, stored in extreme
temperatures or stored without a full charge may be permanently damaged, causing unreliable
performance and limited service life.
NOTE: To extend battery life, always turn off scooter and remove the key when not in use.

17
Mid-size Scooter Series
What type and size of battery should I use?
We recommend deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. Both AGM and Gel-Cell are deep-
cycle batteries that are similar in performance. Do not use wet-cell batteries, which have removable caps.
Refer to the specifications table for size as batteries differ depending on manufacture.
WARNING! Corrosive chemicals are contained in batteries. Use only AGM or Gel-
Cell batteries to reduce the risk of leakage or explosive conditions.
NOTE: Sealed batteries are not serviceable. Do not remove the caps.
Why do my new batteries seem weak?
Deep-cycle batteries employ a different chemical technology than that used in car batteries, nickel-
cadmium batteries (nicads) and other common battery types. Deep-cycle batteries are specifically
designed to provide power, drain down their charge and then accept a relatively quick recharge.
We work closely with our battery manufacturer to provide batteries that best suit your scooter’s specific
electrical demands. Fresh batteries are shipped fully charged to our customers. During shipping, the
batteries may encounter temperature extremes that can influence their initial performance. Heat diminishes
the charge on the battery; cold slows the available power and extends the time needed to recharge the
battery.
It may take a few days for the temperature of your scooter’s batteries to stabilize and adjust to their new
room or ambient temperature. More importantly, it takes a few charging cycles (partial draining followed
by full recharging) to establish the critical chemical balance that is essential to a deep-cycle battery’s peak
performance and long life.
Follow these steps to properly break in your scooter’s new batteries for maximum efficiency and
service life:
1. Fully recharge any new battery prior to its initial use. This charging cycle brings the battery up to about
88% of its peak performance level.
2. Operate your new scooter in familiar and safe areas. Drive slowly at first and do not travel too far from
your home or familiar surroundings until you have become accustomed to your scooter’s controls and
have properly broken in your scooter’s batteries.
3. Fully recharge the batteries. They should be at over 90% of their peak performance level.
4. Operate your scooter again, and fully recharge the batteries again.
5. After four or five charging cycles, the batteries are able to receive a charge of 100% of their peak
performance level and are able to last for an extended period of time.
What about public transportation?
If you intend to use public transportation with your scooter, you must contact the transportation provider
in advance to determine their specific requirements.
