IV. BATTERIES AND CHARGING
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How does the charger work?
When your 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. There-
fore, when the charger is plugged in, it maintains the charge on your scooters batteries, but does not overcharge
them. We do not recommend that you charge your scooters batteries for more than 24 consecutive hours.
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 scooters 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.
What if my scooter’s batteries won’t charge?
! Ensure the red (+) and black (-) battery cables are connected properly to the battery terminals.
! Ensure both battery harnesses that extend from the batteries are plugged into their mating harness leading to
the charger.
! Ensure both ends of the charger power lead are inserted fully.
How often must I charge the batteries?
Two major factors must be considered when deciding how often to charge your scooters batteries:
! All day scooter use on a daily basis.
! Infrequent or sporadic scooter use.
With these considerations in mind, you can determine how often and for how long you should charge your scooters
batteries. We designed the off-board charger so that it will not overcharge your scooters batteries. However, you
may encounter some problems if you do not charge your batteries often enough and if you do not charge them on
a regular basis. Following the guidelines below will provide safe and reliable battery operation and charging.
! If you use your scooter daily, charge its batteries as soon as you finish using it for the day. Your scooter will be
ready each morning. We recommend that you charge your scooters batteries for 8 to 14 hours after daily use.
! If you use your scooter once a week or less, charge its batteries at least once a week for 12 to 14 hours at a time.
! Keep your scooters batteries fully charged.
! Avoid deeply discharging your scooters batteries.
How can I ensure maximum battery life?
Fully charged deep-cycle batteries provide reliable performance and extended battery life. Keep your scooter’s
batteries fully charged whenever possible. Protect your scooter and batteries from extreme heat or cold. Batteries
that are regularly and deeply discharged, infrequently charged, stored in extreme temperatures or stored without a full
charge may be permanently damaged, causing unreliable performance and limited service life.
