If your charger fuse repeatedly blows, try plugging your scooter’s power charger lead into an outlet on a
different circuit.
n The fuse is located under a cap on the outside of the battery charger.
n The cap unscrews to allow access to the fuse.
n Unscrew the cap and replace the fuse if it has blown.
CAUTION! The replacement fuse must exactly match the rating of the new fuse. If you install a
fuse with an incorrect rating, you may damage the charger. Contact your authorised Pride provider
for fuse rating information.
Batteries
The batteries store the electrical energy that powers your scooter. See V. “Batteries and Charging.”
Electronic Controller Assembly
The electronic controller assembly is located behind the batteries and at the forward left corner of the
scooter’s rear section. This assembly receives electrical signals from the console controls and sends power
to the motor, the brakes, and the optional lighting system.
Main Circuit Breaker
When the voltage in your scooter’s batteries becomes low or your scooter is heavily strained because of
excessive loads or steep inclines, the main circuit breaker may trip to protect your scooter’s motor and
electronics from damage.
n The main circuit breaker is mounted on the rear section of the scooter, near the manual freewheel lever.
See figure 7.
n The main circuit breaker reset button pops out when the breaker trips.
n When the breaker trips, the entire electrical system of your scooter is shut down.
n Allow a minute or so for your scooter’s electronics to “rest.”
n Push in the reset button to reset the breaker.
n If the breaker trips frequently, you may need to charge your batteries more often. You may also need to
have your authorised Pride provider perform a load test on your scooter’s batteries.
n If the main circuit breaker trips repeatedly, see your authorised Pride provider for service.
Manual Freewheel Lever
Whenever you need or want to push your scooter for short distances, you can put it in freewheel mode.
WARNING! Before placing your scooter into or taking it out of freewheel mode, remove the key
from the key switch. Even though the motor of your scooter is disengaged from the drive system
when your scooter is put in manual freewheel mode, the motor can still run if the throttle lever is
pushed. Never sit on a scooter when it is in freewheel mode. Never put a scooter in freewheel
mode on an incline.
n The manual freewheel lever is located on the end of the motor/transaxle assembly at the left rear of the
scooter, and extends through the rear shroud. See figure 7.
n Pull up on the manual freewheel lever to disable the drive system and the brake system. You will then
be able to push your scooter.
n Push down on the manual freewheel lever to reengage the drive system and the brake system and to
take your scooter out of freewheel mode.
