Battery Charging
The charging socket is on the upper right hand side of the battery box as
shown or on the rear of the battery box. Rotate the protective cover and push
in the plug. When the vehicle is charged remove the plug, and refit the
protective cover to keep the water out.
The battery charger has a small indicating lamp. When the charger is
connected and switched on the lamp will show green. When the battery
is being charged it shows red, when the battery is fully charged the lamp
will change to green. Always ensure that the lamp shows green before
switching off and disconnecting the charger at the mains.
Connection Instructions
When you receive your vehicle the batteries are only partially charged –
always fully charge them before use preferably over-night. Always fit the full
set of batteries before charging and always use an earthed connection.
1. Place your machine in an area that is dry and well ventilated.
Make sure a power point is nearby.

Warning! When charging batteries NEVER smoke or charge batteries in a place where there are naked
flames such as gas-fired heaters as, under exceptional circumstances, batteries may give off gases that
could ignite and explode. Always make sure that the battery pack is not damaged. Never charge the
s
cooter battery pack outside as the charger is not designed to get wet. If the charger appears damaged in
any way do not use it and contact your dealer for a replacement.
Warning! Always charge in a dry, well ventilated area.
Warning! It is strongly recommended that the mains socket used for charging the scooter is protected
by a 30 m/A RCD (residual current device). Many buildings have sockets protected by a system based
RCD. If you are in doubt as to the level of protection in your charging location then either purchase a plug
in RCD or consult a qualified electrician to verify that your charging location mains sockets are protected.
Warning! If batteries are damaged or frozen they could heat up during charging and in an extreme case,
explode.
Warning! Do not attempt to open the battery box/enclosure, there are no user serviceable parts inside.
Warning! Never use a different battery charger to that supplied by your dealer. Damage or injury may
occur if you do!
Warning! When charging batteries NEVER connect or disconnect the charger from the battery pack
while it is still connected to the mains. - Remove the charger mains plug from the wall socket having first
switched the mains socket off if a switch is provided.
Warning! Do not drop your battery pack as damage may occur. Battery packs are heavy - be careful
when lifting them.
