CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Scooters require a minimal amount of care and maintenance. The following areas require inspection
and/or care and maintenance. There is no need to fold or dismantle the scooter when scooter in storage
or in transport.
TIRE PRESSURE
 If equipped with pneumatic tires, always maintain the air pressure in psi rating indicated on each
tire.
 Your power scooter comes with standard pneumatic tyres. If your power scooter comes with
optional air tires, make sure to maintain the pressure of the tires between 30-35 psi (2.0 – 2.4 bar).
 It is important that the air pressure in psi rating indicated on each tire be maintained in pneumatic
tires at all times. Do not overinflate your tires. Low pressure may result in loss of control, and
overinflated tires may burst. Failure to maintain the air pressure in psi rating indicated on the tires
at all times may result in tire and/or wheel failure. Regularly inspect your scooter's tires for signs
of wear.
CLEANING AND DISINFECTION
 Use a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleanser to clean the plastic and metal parts of your
scooter. Avoid using products that may scratch the surface of your scooter.
 If necessary, clean your product with an approved disinfectant. Make sure the disinfectant is safe
for use on your product before application.
 Follow all safety instructions for the proper use of the disinfectant and/or cleaning agent before
applying it to your product. Failure to comply may result in skin irritation or premature
deterioration of upholstery and/or scooter finishes.
BATTERY TERMINAL CONNECTIONS
 Make certain that the terminal connections remain tight and uncorroded.
 The batteries must sit flat in the battery wells.
 The battery terminals should face towards the inside of the scooter.
WIRING HARNESSES
 Regularly check all wiring connections.
 Regularly check all wiring insulation, including the charger power cord, for wear or damage.
 Have your authorized dealer repair or replace any damaged connector, connection, or insula-
tion that you find before using your scooter again.
