What type and size of battery should I use?
Your Travel Scooter requires two deep-cycle batteries. We recommend only sealed, maintenance-free batteries
such as AGM or Gel-Cell which are similar in performance. Do not use wet-cell batteries, which have removable
caps. Refer to the specifications table for size as batteries differ depending on manufacture.
WARNING! Corrosive chemicals are contained in batteries. Use only AGM or
Gel-Cell batteries to reduce the risk of leakage or explosive conditions.
NOTE: Sealed batteries are not serviceable. Do not remove the caps.
How do I change a battery in my Travel Scooter?
MANDATORY! Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead
and lead compounds. Wear goggles and gloves when handling batteries and
wash hands after handling.
WARNING! Always use two batteries of the exact same type, chemistry and amp-
hour (Ah) capacity. Refer to the specifications table in this manual and in the
manual supplied with the battery charger for recommended type and capacities.
WARNING! Do not mix old and new batteries. Always replace both batteries at
the same time.
WARNING! Contact your authorised Pride Provider if you have any questions regarding
the batteries in your Travel Scooter.
WARNING! Do not replace the batteries while the Travel Scooter is occupied.
