WARNING!
Do not use the Battery Pack if the Battery Pack casing is broken or if a Battery Pack
emits an unusual odor or excessive heat or leaks any substance. Avoid contact with any
substance seeping from the Battery Pack.
Keep out of reach of children and pets. Exposure to Battery Pack voltage could result in
death or serious injury.
Unplug and disconnect your Segway HT from AC power before removing or installing
Battery Packs or performing any service. It is hazardous to work on any part of your
Segway HT when it is plugged into AC power. You risk serious bodily injury from electric
shock as well as damage to your Segway HT.
The cells within the Battery Packs contain toxic substances. Do not attempt to open
Battery Packs. Do not insert any object into the Battery Packs or use any device to pry at
the Battery Pack casing. If you insert an object into any of the Battery Pack’s ports or
openings you could suffer electric shock, injury, burns, or cause a fire. Attempting to
open the Battery Pack casing will damage the casing and could release toxic and
harmful substances.
Replace Battery Packs in Pairs
Whenever you replace a Battery Pack, consider replacing both Battery Packs, and always use pairs of
Battery Packs with the same chemistry. Replacing only one Battery Pack will not necessarily increase the
performance or range of your Segway HT, because the Segway HT is designed to operate only at the
level allowed by the lower-energy Battery Pack.
Redundancy is a critical safety feature built into the Segway HT. This applies to the Battery Packs.
Therefore, you should replace Battery Packs in pairs (except for the unusual situation where a Battery
Pack is replaced because of damage or defect and the other Battery Pack is relatively new).

> Removing Battery Packs
Step 1
Make sure the Segway HT is powered off and not
plugged into AC. It is unsafe to perform this
procedure while you are charging your Segway HT.
Step 2
Orient the Segway HT so the bottom of the platform
is exposed.
Step 3
Use the 3 mm hex wrench to remove screws
securing the Battery Pack(s) you wish to replace
(four screws per Battery Pack).
Step 4
Pull Battery Pack straight off Chassis.
> Installing Battery Packs
Step 1
Seat the new Battery Pack on the Chassis with the
curved edge facing outside of Chassis.
Step 2
Thread in the four, correct length fasteners (NiMH
uses M4x0.7x16, Li-ion uses M4x0.7x30) and
torque to 1.0 N-m for NiMH packs or 1.6 N-m for Li-
ion packs. Over tightening can damage the Battery
Packs and the Chassis.
To maximize Battery Pack life and performance, follow
the Charging procedure explained in your Segway HT
Reference Manual. If you do not have the Reference
Manual, please contact Segway Customer Operations
at 1.866.4SEGWAY (1.866.473.4929) or download a
