Battery and Charger Information
Every RoadRunner D4+ 4.0 Scooter is equipped with a dedicated lithium-ion
battery and a dedicated smart charger. Please do not use any other charger
or battery with your scooter, and do not use your dedicated charger with any
other product. We are not responsible for any damage incurred due to misuse
of your charger.
1. Battery: The lithium-ion battery provided by RoadRunner Scooters can be
charged up to 600 times with no change in capacity.
•Over 600 uses, the battery’s capacity will drop to 80%.
•Over 1000 uses, the battery may need replacing if it doesn’t hold a full
charge.
Maximum Voltage for full battery charge: 58.8 V
Minimum Voltage before battery dies: 42.0 V
WARNING: NEVER LEAVE THE SCOOTER UNATTENDED WHILE
BATTERY IS CHARGING!
2. Charger: The smart charger included with your D4+ 4.0 scooter
automatically stops charging and the light turns green when your scooter
reaches 100%, which means it is fully charged. The battery should be fully
charged in 9-10 hours with a single charger (4-5 hours with 2 chargers). If
your battery will not charge, please contact RoadRunner Scooters for help.
If your battery is damaged due to water, storing in extreme temperatures,
or human mishandling, it is not covered under the new scooter or extended
warranty.

Maintenance
Always check your scooter regularly to ensure all screws are tight. Screws can
become loose over time with vibration and movement. Tighten them as needed.
1. Battery
a. Be sure to fully charge your scooter’s battery before your first ride.
b. When storing scooter during cold months, store a climate controlled
environment to avoid battery damage.
2. Storage and daily care
a. Do not store your scooter in direct sun or in a damp area.
b. Keep your scooter clean of dirt and debris build-up, especially in
brake and motor areas.
Adjusting the Stem Height
It is extremely important to make sure the fastening clasp is extremely tight before riding
the D4+ 4.0 Electric Scooter.
To adjust the stem height:
1. Pull the fastening clasp outwards
so the clasp is open.
2. Loosen the fastening clasp
counterclockwise.
3. Gently press the silver button to
adjust the stem up or down as
desired. (There are 3 heights to
choose from).
4. Once adjusted to desired height,
tighten the fastening clasp
clockwise and push back into the
stem so it is snug and tight.

Folding the Scooter
Lower the stem towards
the scooter deck.
Pull the blue safety lever down
to the deck. Press the silver
snap back so that the stem
completely folds down as
shown in picture.
When you hear a click, the stem is
locked, and folding is complete.

15
Unfolding the Scooter
After the stem is locked in an upright
position , push the stem forward to remove
pressure from the safety lever while
simultaneously pushing the blue safety lever
with opposite hand up towards the stem
until lever is locked in place.
Press the silver snap back
towards deck of scooter to
completely
remove the black
post from the upper slot.
Keep pressing the silver snap
and push the stem vertical to
ground.

Installing Steering Damper
Before you begin installing the Steering Damper, make sure we have all the
necessary tools and hardware. The hardware includes the following (all included
in box);
-2x M6x1.0, 18mm long
bolts
-2x M8x1.25, 35mm long
bolts
-2x M8 spring washers
-2x M6 washers
-2x M8x1.25 locking nuts
-1x long threaded dowel
-1x shorter threaded dowel
-1x steering damper
-1x steering damper clamp
For tools, you will need the following:
-1x 5mm allen wrench
-1x 6mm allen wrench
-1x 13mm socket wrench (adjustable
spanner works too, it is just more time
consuming)
-Blue Thread Locker (optional)

17
1. Begin by moving the safety lever
into its lowered position.
2. If you are using thread locker,
apply now to the 2x M5 bolts. You
will only need a little bit to get the
job done.
3. Use the 5mm allen to hold the M5 bolt and put it through the lefthand hold on the
neck of the scooter. At the same time, use your fingers on your right hand to place
the washer on the other side of the lefthand side of the neck.

18
4. Use your fingers to thread the larger dowel onto the end of the bolt. You will want
to leave it slightly loose. It may help to use the 5mm allen as a counter- torque for
the bolt.
5. Now do the front dowel. The process is very similar, and should be a bit easier.
Start by placing the washer onto the M5 bolt, and place it through the hole on the
righthand side of the blue arm. Then hand tighten the dowel onto the other end of the
M5 bolt. Remember: do not tighten all the way yet.

19
6. It is best to have both holes facing vertically as seen above.
7. Now slide the clamp onto the
steering damper. Don’t tighten the
clamp down just yet. The damper is
oriented in the below photo exactly how
we want it on the scooter (lefthand side
is the front, righthand side is the rear)
.
8. Place the eyelet above the rear (larger)
dowel hole and start threading the M8 bolt
through the eyelet in the damper and into the
dowel. Once you can no longer tighten it with
your fingers, use the 6mm allen to tighten
down the rest of the way.
