15. Battery (Warnings)

Make sure the scooter, charger and charging port are dry.
When the scooter is fully charged, the LED light on the charger changes from red
(charging) to green (charging completed).
Use only the original charger. Other chargers damage the device and pose other potential
risks.
The scooter should not be charged for extended periods. Overcharging reduces battery life
and may cause other potential risks.
Charge the scooter in a dry environment away from flammable materials
(e.g. materials that could explode into flames), preferably at an internal temperature of
15–25 °C, but never below 0 °C or above + 40 °C.
Do not charge in direct sunlight or near a fire.
Do not charge the scooter immediately after use. Let the scooter cool down for one hour
before charging.
Never leave the electric scooter unattended while charging. Heat risk! Never connect the
DC charging socket with metal objects.
Read the charging and storage sections above to ensure you maintain and handle the
battery properly. Keep the scooter away from open flames or other heat sources to prevent
the battery from overheating. Do not leave the scooter exposed to freezing temperatures.
Both excessive heat and cold can drain the battery.
Avoid completely discharging the battery.
It is best to recharge the battery while there is still some charge left. This prolongs the life
of the battery. When the charge is too low, it is not possible to drive normally. This may lead
to the driver losing control or falling.
Make sure the battery is charged at regular intervals, even if you do not use the electric
scooter for an extended period. This prevents damage to the battery caused by low voltage
over an extended period.
Battery precautions:
The battery is made up of lithium-ion cells and chemical elements that are hazardous
to health and the environment. Do not use the scooter if it emits odours, substances or
excessive heat. Do not dispose of the electric scooter or battery with household waste. The
end user is responsible for the disposal of electrical and electronic equipment and batteries
in compliance with all applicable regulations.
