V. BATTERIES AND CHARGING
How can I get maximum range or distance per charge?
Rarely will you have ideal driving conditions — smooth, flat, hard driving surfaces with no wind or curves.
Often, you will face hills, sidewalk cracks, uneven and loosely packed surfaces, curves, and wind. All of
these driving conditions affect the distance or running time per battery charge. The following are a few
suggestions for obtaining the maximum range per battery charge.
! Always fully charge the batteries prior to your daily use.
! Maintain 2-2,4 bar (pounds per square inch) in all of your Scooter tyres.
! Plan your route to avoid as many hills, cracked, broken, or soft surfaces as possible.
! Limit your baggage weight to essential items.
! Try to maintain an even speed while your Scooter is in motion.
! Avoid stop-and-go driving.
What type and size of battery should I use?
WARNING! Do not remove the caps from sealed batteries. Water cannot be added to sealed
batteries. Cap removal voids the battery warranty and may cause damage to the batteries
and to your scooter.
How can I ensure maximum battery life?
Fully charged deep-cycle batteries provide reliable performance and extended battery service life. Keep
the batteries fully charged whenever possible. Batteries that are deeply discharged, infrequently charged, or
stored without a full charge may be permanently damaged and cause unreliable performance and limited
service life.
