Battery maintenance

Refer to the instructions for the batteries.
 Make sure that the batteries are always
well charged.
 Never use the scooter if the batteries are
almost depleted, and never allow the
batteries to become completely
depleted. This can cause serious
damage to the batteries and you run the
risk of coming to an unintended
standstill.
Cleaning the batteries
Keep the batteries clean and dry. Dirt and
water may cause a current leak, reducing the
capacity of the batteries. Coat the terminals
with acid-free Vaseline after cleaning.
Replacing the batteries
If the capacity of the batteries is reduced to the
extent that the scooter can only make very
short trips, the batteries are at the end of their
life span. The batteries must then be replaced.

pump. Use the supplied adapter. You can also
have the tyres filled at a petrol station.
