V. BATTERIES AND CHARGING
WARNING! If your scooter’s batteries become frozen, do not attempt to charge them. Cold
or frozen batteries should be allowed to warm up for several days prior to recharging.
Battery Specifications
Type: Deep-cycle (AGM or Gel-Cell)
Voltage: 12 volts each
Size: 12 AH
What type and size battery should I use?
Your scooter comes equipped with two deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. Both AGM
and Gel-Cell are deep-cycle batteries that are similar in performance. Do not use wet-cell batteries, which have
removable caps.
Use these specifications to reorder deep-cycle batteries from your authorised Pride Dealer:
Why do my new
batteries seem weak?
Deep-cycle batteries employ a different chemical technology than that used in car batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries
(nicads), or in other common battery types. Deep-cycle batteries are specifically designed to provide power, drain
down their charge, and then accept a relatively quick recharge.
We work closely with our battery manufacturer to provide batteries that best suit your scooter’s specific electrical
demands. Fresh batteries arrive daily at Pride and are shipped fully charged to our customers. During shipping, the
batteries may encounter temperature extremes that may influence their initial performance. Heat diminishes the
charge on the battery; cold slows the available power and extends the time needed to recharge the battery.
It may take a few days for the temperature of your scooter’s batteries to stabilise and adjust to their new room or
ambient temperature.
It takes a few charging cycles (partial draining followed by full recharging) to establish the critical chemical balance
that is essential to a deep-cycle battery’s peak performance and long life. Follow these steps to properly break-
in your scooter’s new batteries for maximum efficiency and service life.
1. Fully recharge any new battery prior to its initial use. This charging cycle brings the battery up to about 88% of
its peak performance level.
2. Operate your new scooter in familiar and safe areas. Drive slowly at first, and do not travel too far from your
home or familiar surroundings until you have become accustomed to your scooters controls.
3. Fully recharge the batteries. They should be at over 90% of their peak performance level.
4. Operate your scooter again.
5. Fully recharge the batteries again.
6. After four or five charging cycles, the batteries are able to receive a charge of 100% of their peak performance
level and are able to last for an extended period of time.
WARNING! Corrosive chemicals are contained in batteries. Use only AGM or Gel-Cell
batteries to reduce the risk of leakage or explosive conditions.
