TGA Breeze3 Operating Instructions And Owner's Handbook page 10

• The Breeze uses maintenance free batteries, they are leak-proof regardless of position. Charging the battery is
the only maintenance required (refer to cha rging instructions). DO NOT leave the batteries flat, charge every 4-6
weeks if the Breeze is being stored and not used.
• Check the electrical cable connectors are fully home and secure.
• Battery Replacement is dependent upon use, the batteries generally last up to 3 years. When batteries loose
power too quickly, it is likely they are due for replacement. If there is no dealer in your area, you may want to
change the batteries yourself. Order batteries direct from TGA. Installation instructions are included with the
replacement batteries.
• Repairs relating to electrical or mechanical components should be performed by your Breeze dealer only.
Seat Upholstery: A damp cloth and a little soap will keep your seat, and backrest looking g ood. Do not use
abrasive cleaners as this will damage the coating. Upholstery can be damaged by chemical cleaners. Ultraviolet
light can also reduce the life of the upholstery coating material. This is a normal ageing process and cannot be
guaranteed (see exclus ion in the Warranty Terms section).
:
Bodywork The bodywork on your Breeze can be lightly washed with clean soapy water. Car polish ca n be used
to keep the paint and bodywork in pristine condition. Do not use abrasive cleaners or strong detergents as this will
fade the colour.
CAUTION: Do not hose down your Breeze. Water could be forced into the electronics and cause
permanent damage.
DO NOT store your Breeze in damp conditions. This may affect the electronics if left for very long periods of time .
:
Electronics Servicing of the drive electronics and charger should only be carried out by your local TGA service
d ealer. These units are sealed and should not be opened. BROKEN SEALS WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
DO NOT operate your Breeze in extreme weather cond itions i.e. very heavy rain. DO NOT drive through deep

scooter and contact your dealer.
SAFETY NOTE: For your own safety, we recommend that you check the function of your brakes prior to every
journey.
D riving Brake: When you drive your Breeze and let go of the speed control lever, it should reduce speed very
quickly. If you notice a change in the normal driving/slowing condition and your Breeze does not slow down qu ickly
please do not use your machine and contact your dealer
Batteries: Keep your batteries well charged (see Battery Charging section). Keep batteries clean and in a dry
frost-proof place. Keep battery term inals tight.
IMPORTANT: It is not possible to predict the life expectancy of your batteries. This is mainly due to different
workloads a battery ca n be subjected to.
Some Breeze users will use their scooter every day and for long periods of time. Their batteries will receive a near
total and regular discharge and the life of their batteries will be short (12 months or less in some cases).
Other Breeze users will use their vehicles less frequently, putting their batteries through a less demanding
discharge life style. These batteries will probably have a longer life (24 to 36 months or longer).
When you need to replace the batterie s, always insist on the model fitted as standard equipment to your Breeze. If
In doubt, consult with your local TGA authorized dealer.
