    PROHIBITED! Do not allow unsupervised children to play near the scooter while the battery is charging. Pride recommends that you do not charge the battery while the scooter is occupied. MANDATORY! Read the battery charging instructions in this manual and in the manual supplied with the battery charger before charging the battery.
  • Page 17 GREEN, it may mean that your batteries are too discharged to allow charging or there may be an issue with your charger – In this case, please contact your Pride Service Provider for advice. NOTE: The battery condition meter on your scooter displays an approximate reading of battery strength.
  • Page 18 Your scooter will be ready each morning to give you a full day’s service. It is recommended that you charge the battery at least 8 to 14 hours after daily use. Pride recommends that you charge your battery for an additional 4 hours after the battery charger indicates that charging is complete.
  • Page 19 We work closely with our battery manufacturer to provide a battery that best suits your scooter’s specific demands. Fresh batteries arrive regularly at Pride and are promptly shipped with a full charge. During shipping, the battery encounters temperature extremes that may influence initial performance. Heat robs the charge from the battery, and cold slows the power available and extends the time needed to recharge the battery (just as with a car battery).
  • Page 20 What about public transportation? The Pride-supplied Lithium-Ion batteries are designed for application in scooters and other mobility vehicles. Transport of the item on commercial aircraft is subject to government regulations and airline policy.
