Charging The Batteries
7. Plug in the two power connecting plugs into
the sockets. The design of each plug and
socket is different. Connect the ones which
best fit each other to finish the assembly.
8. Match pins of plugs to the holes of the
sockets. Note the alignment notches.
NOTE : Handlebar height adjustment. Handlebar
height can be easily adjusted by opening the
quick release on the handlebar tube to preferred
height, then firmly closing quick release.
Before you ride the Trotinette for the first time
it is advised that the unit is fully charged (4-6
hours) and fully discharged(ride until the battery
gauge indicates low battery) for at least 3 cycles
to maximize the efficiency of the battery. After
that, you should continue to charge the battery
frequently, at least once every 30 days to prolong
the battery lifespan.
Important:DO NOT leave the battery uncharged
for more than 3 months,otherwise it will greatly
reduce the battery lifespan.
To charge the batteries, plug the charger into
the charger socket located on the rear side of the
battery/ controller compartment. Then plug the
charger into a wall outlet.
