How do I change a battery in my Travel Scooter?
MANDATORY! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and
lead compounds. Wear goggles and gloves when handling batteries and wash
hands after handling.
WARNING! Always use two batteries of the exact same type, chemistry, and amp-
hour (Ah) capacity. Refer to the specifications table in this manual and in the
manual supplied with the battery charger for recommended type and capacities.
WARNING! Do not mix old and new batteries. Always replace both batteries at the
same time.
WARNING! Contact your Pride Provider if you have any questions regarding the
batteries in your Travel Scooter.
WARNING! Do not replace the batteries while the Travel Scooter is occupied.
WARNING! The batteries on your Travel Scooter should only be serviced or
replaced by an authorised Pride Provider or a qualified technician.
PROHIBITED! Keep tools and other metal objects away from the battery terminals.
Contact with tools can cause electrical shock.
