6.1.2 Replacing the batteries
If the capacity of the batteries is reduced to
the extend that the scooter can only make
very short trips, or even none at all, the
batteries are at the end of their life span.
Replace them as soon as possible.
Preferably contact your
dealer: he knows exactly
which batteries are most
suitable for your scooter.
Replace the batteries as follows:
• Switch off the scooter (remove the contact
plug from the contact).
• Remove the seat. See 'Removing the
seat’.
• Remove the lock (A) from the front of the
battery cover.
• Remove the red and the black plugs from
the battery (A).
• Loosen the taut-bands, which hold the
batteries, by squeezing in the clasps (B).
• Loosen the battery clamps (C) from the
cables using a spanner with a key width of
13 mm.
• Remove both batteries (D).
New batteries are placed in the reverse order,
as follows:
• Put the new batteries in place.
• Fasten the batteries using the taut-bands.
• Connect the cables according to the table below:
No. Cable colour Text on label Connect to
B Black Battery 1 Minus terminal of battery 1 (left)
C Red Battery 1 Plus terminal of battery 1 (left)
D Black Battery 2 Minus terminal of battery 2 (right)
E Red Battery 2 Plus terminal of battery 2 (right)
• Tighten the battery clamps.
• Note the correct connection of the cables to the batteries: these
are marked with labels.
• The connections may NOT be exchanged.
• Make sure that the battery terminals and battery clamps are
quite clean.
• Grease the battery clamps to prevent oxidation, using acid-free Vaseline.
