CARE AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING: THE BATTERIES USED ON YOUR SCOOTER HOLD A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT
OF POWER. SHORTING OF THE TERMINALS CAN RESULT IN BURNS OR OTHER

Battery Charging Information
Note: Your scooter may be equipped with either “GEL”, “Silicone”, or “AGM”
batteries. These batteries do NOT have “Memory”. It is not necessary to
completely discharge the batteries before charging them.
Note: If you are not going to use your Avenger
™ for an extended time, fully
charge the batteries before storing your scooter. The batteries can be left
unmaintained for up to 6 months if they are first fully charged and kept at room
temperature (approximately 72
° F).
Note: if you have not used your scooter for more then three days, make certain
that you charge the batteries on the night before you are going to use your
scooter. This will ensure that you start operating your scooter with a full charge
on the batteries.
Note: If you use your scooter during the day, charge the batteries as soon as
you are finished using it. The charger is fully automatic. You cannot overcharge
the batteries. Following this procedure will prepare your scooter for a full day’s
service each day.
Note: If you use your scooter sparingly over the course of the day, and have not
reduced the charge on the batteries by any great amount, it may not be
necessary to charge the batteries every night.
