Troubleshooting - Pride Rally shopper Owner's Manual

X .
Any electromechanical device occasionally requires some troubleshooting. However, most of the problems that
may arise can usually be solved with a bit of thought and common sense. Many of these problems occur because
the batteries are not fully charged or because the batteries are worn down and can no longer hold a charge.
If you experience any problems with your scooter that you are unable to handle, immediately contact your autho-
rized Pride provider for information, maintenance, and service.
