Follow these easy steps to charge your batteries safely:
1. Position your Travel Scooter or battery pack close to a standard electrical outlet. See figure 15.
2. Remove the key from the key switch.
3. Make certain that the manual freewheel lever is in the drive (rearward) position.
4. Plug the charger power cord into the charger power cord receptacle on your Travel Scooter, then into the
electrical outlet. We recommend that you charge the batteries for 8 to 14 hours.
NOTE: The LED lights on the charger indicate different charger conditions at various times. Refer to the
operating instructions supplied with the charger for a complete explanation of these indicators.
5. When the batteries are fully charged, unplug the
charger power cord from the electrical outlet and
then from the charger power cord receptacle.
NOTE: There is a charger inhibit function on
your Travel Scooter. The Travel Scooter will not
run and the battery condition meter will not op-
erate while the batteries are charging (when pack
is being charged on the Travel Scooter).

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How does the charger work?
When your Travel Scooter's battery voltage is low, the charger works harder, sending more electrical current to
the batteries to bring up their charge. As the batteries approach a full charge, the charger sends less and less
electrical current. When the batteries are fully charged, the current sent from the charger is at nearly zero
amperage. Therefore, when the charger is plugged in, it maintains the charge on your Travel Scooter's batteries,
but does not overcharge them. We do not recommend that you charge your Travel Scooter's batteries for more
than 24 consecutive hours.
What if my Travel Scooter's batteries will not charge?
! Ensure that the fuse on the battery pack is in working condition.
! Ensure both ends of the charger power cord are inserted fully.
Can I use a different charger?
Chargers are selected precisely for particular applications and are especially matched to the type, size, and chemi-
cal formulation of specific batteries. For the safest and most efficient charging of your Travel Scooter's batteries,
we recommend use of the charger supplied as original equipment with your Pride product only. Any charging
method resulting in batteries being charged individually is especially prohibited.
