PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION
Sealed lead acid AGM or gel-cell batteries are designed for use in scooters. These batteries are Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA) approved. Since there is no danger of spillage or leakage, this allows for
safe transportation on aircraft, buses, and trains.
VII. INSPECTION & MAINTENANCE
GENERAL GUIDELINES
Your scooter is an advanced mobility device, and with the correct routine maintenance you can ensure
years of maximum use. While some of the maintenance can be done by yourself, you may need
assistance from an authorized distributor.
Preventative maintenance is the key to keeping your scooter in prime operating condition.
Follow the Maintenance Schedule at the end of this section to periodically inspect your scooter for
serviceable items.
Avoid abuse to the throttle and control functions.
Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat or cold.
Keep the scooter clean and free from moisture.
Never use a conditioner on the tread of the wheels.
EXPOSURE TO MOISTURE
Should your scooter come in contact with water or moisture, dry your scooter thoroughly with a towel.
Allow your scooter to sit in a dry place for 8 to 12 hours to allow unseen moisture to evaporate. Check
the throttle operation and brakes before using your scooter again. If any items require service please
contact E-Wheels Service department 888 571 2845.
OPERATING TEMPERATURES
Your scooter is designed to operate ideally between 18°F and 122°F. In extremely cold conditions your
batteries may freeze depending on the battery charge, usage, and composition of the batteries. In
extremely hot conditions your scooter may operate at a lower speed. This is due to the safety
mechanism built into the unit to prevent damage to the gearbox and other electronic functions when
operating too hot.
VIII. INSPECTION & MAINTENANCE
STORAGE
If you need to store your scooter, be sure it is stored in a dry place free from extreme temperatures.
Always fully charge, and then disconnect the batteries prior to storage.
