Your Companion like any other electro-mechanical machine

will benefit from regular servicing by your Freerider dealer.

You too, can help keep your Companion in tip-top

condition by following a simple guide to home maintenance.

Note: Only competent people should carry out service work.

SEAT UPHOLSTERY

A damp cloth and a little soapy water will keep your seat,

backrest and arms looking smart. Do not use abrasive

cleaners as this will damage the coating. Upholstery can be

damaged by chemical cleaners. The coating material can also

degrade over a period of time due to contamination by

natural oils in the hair and skin.

Ultra-violet light can also reduce the life of the upholstery

coating material. This is a normal ageing process and cannot

be guaranteed (see exclusions in the Guarantee Terms).

BODYWORK

The painted bodywork on your Companion Scooter can be

lightly washed with clean soapy water. Do not use abrasive

cleaners or strong detergents. This could fade the colour, an

auto type shampoo works well. Remove salt contact as this

is very corrosive to bright metal parts.

Caution: Do not hose down your Companion with a

powerful cleaner. Water could be forced into the electronics

and cause permanent damage.

On the painted finish, be cautious not to wash with a dirty

cloth as this could scratch the paint finish. Auto polish can

be used to keep the paintwork and bright chrome parts in

pristine condition.

The metal framework of your Companion should be cleaned

once a year and any paintwork damaged should be treated

to prevent further attack from the elements.

Do not store your Companion in damp conditions. This

may affect the electronics if left for very long periods of

time. Moisture, if left unattended can cause deterioration on

metal work, protect with proprietory cleaners.

ELECTRONICS

Servicing of the drive electronics and charger should only be

carried out by your local Freerider service dealer. These

units are sealed and should not be opened. BROKEN

SEALS WILL INVALIDATE YOUR GUARANTEE.

Do not operate your Freerider Companion in exceptional

weather conditions ie. very heavy rain. Cover your

machine up, if it is to be left unattended and outside for a

long period of time.

Do not drive through deep water with your Companion.

This could damage the electronic speed controller. Sea

and road salts are very corrosive and should be

neutralised quickly.

MOTOR

The motor on your Freerider Companion is fitted with long-

life brushes. The brushes should be inspected for wear every

12 months or more frequently if you use you Companion

daily for long periods. The brushes should be changed

when they have worn down to approximately 8mm in

length. Access to these brushes can only be made by

dismantling the motor body.

Caution: Only competent people should service the

motor’s components.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

CHARGER MAINS PLUG

Your Charger’s main input cord is already fitted with a

moulded plug incorporating a fuse, the value of which is

indicated on the pin face of the plug. Should the fuse need to

be replaced, an ASTA approved BS1362 fuse must be used of

the same rating. If the plug supplied is not suitable for your

socket outlet, it should be cut off and destroyed*. The end of

the flexible cord should be suitably prepared and the correct

plug fitted. If any other type of plug is used a 5 amp fuse

must be fitted either in the plug, adaptor or at the

distribution board.

* WARNING: A plug with bared flexible cord is hazardous if

engaged in a live socket outlet.

PLUG WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

Important: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in

accordance with the following code: Blue - neutral, Brown -

live. As these colours may not correspond with the coloured

markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as

follows: The wire which is coloured Blue must be connected

to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter N

or coloured Blue or Black. The wire coloured Brown must be

connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or

coloured Brown or Red.

Warning: Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal

which is marked with the letter E, by the earth symbol or

coloured green or green/yellow.

Caution: Fittings marked are double insulated and do not

need to be earthed. If in doubt or difficulty is experienced,

consult a qualified electrician.
