BATTERY INSTALLATION
Your Scooter is equipped with two maintenance free 12
volt batteries. The batteries are linked together by wiring
cables to supply the electronic system with 24 volts of
power
It is imperative that the two batteries are
connected correctly to prevent a short circuit between the
two batteries.
When first installing the batteries follow these assembly
instructions.
1. Connect the red wire of the battery cable to the
positive (+) terminal of the battery, with the screw, nut
and washer provided.
2. Connect the black wire of the battery cable to the
negative (-) terminal of the battery, with the screw,
nut and washer provided.
3. Repeat this procedure on the second battery making
certain the plastic red/black terminal covers are secured
over each terminal.
4. Secure the two batteries into position with the velcro
hold down adhesive technique.
5. Connect the two black plugs of the batteries into the two
black sockets of the wiring circuit.
6. Switch on your Scooter, the battery meter will now move
to show the state of charge in the batteries and your
Scooter is ready to drive.
7. Switch off your Scooter, fit the battery cover and seat.
Batteries are heavy, always handle with two
hands. Do not allow metal tools to touch both battery
terminals together, this will cause an electrical short and
may damage the battery and injure you. Make certain the
red and black battery wires are correctly attached to the
'+' and '-' terminals as the diagram below. Failure to
observe this warning may cause an explosion, short circuit,
fire or injury to your person.
Your Scooter has a lot of power for a small Scooter.
Keeping it working to its maximum potential means that
its two batteries must be maintained with full power.
Nightly recharging, after use, will help you to give them a
longer life and will ensure your Scooter is always ready to
go when you are.
Your Scooter is fitted with two sealed maintenance-free Batteries,
especially designed for motive traction use. This means that
you do not have to worry about topping up the cells.

Do not attempt to remove the safety valves
situated in the top of the battery. Failure to observe this
warning will invalidate your battery guarantee.
Your Scooter batteries are virtually Maintenance-free because
the electrolyte is immobilized in a special form and therefore
will not leak out, even if the battery is accidentally overturned.
Because your batteries are sealed they are more likely to be
accepted for carriage on aircraft.
Please consult your carrier prior to departure, as they will
need advance warning that you wish them to carry batteries.
