Always follow the procedures for battery care and charging set out on pages 21-26
of this manual.
Though your vehicles batteries are sealed, try to keep batteries upright on a flat
surface at all times, especially when being transported. When being transported
ensure your batteries are located securely in place to prevent damage or injury
Regularly check that your batteries are not damaged, are in good condition with
clean terminals and that no leakage has occurred.
Warning: battery fluids are very corrosive and every care should be taken at all
times to avoid contact with it. If it comes in contact with the skin, clothing or other
surfaces, wash immediately with generous amounts of soap and water. If it comes
in contact with the eyes, immediately flood the eyes with running fresh cold water
for at least 10 minutes and seek immediate medical advice. If it is swallowed seek
immediate medical advice.
Wheels and Tyres
Regularly check your wheels, tyres and steering for damage or foreign objects that
might cause improper performance or a puncture.
Check your tyres regularly for uneven wear. Seek advice from the Horizon Service
Department or your local Horizon dealer if found.
Do not inflate your vehicles tyres using a powered airline at a garage. Always use a
bicycle hand pump or a manual foot pump.

Freewheel Lever

The freewheel lever for your vehicle is located at the rear beside the inside edge of
the right-hand rear wheel.
Never attempt to use the freewheel lever on steep slopes.
Never sit on the vehicle while it is in freewheel as the vehicle will no longer
automatically stop.

Once fully charged the yellow light will go out and the green charger light will
come on. Charging is now complete but if the vehicle is not required it may be left
on, as the charger is fully automatic and will keep the batteries "topped up"
without fear of damage.
Never leave the charger connected to the vehicle batteries with the mains
switched off, as this could shorten battery life or cause permanent battery
damage.
Always plug the charger into the vehicle before plugging it into the mains and
turning it on.
Always switch off the mains before unplugging the charger from the vehicle.
Fig. 15
While the charger is plugged into your vehicle its drive system is disabled.
If you turn on your vehicle whilst it is charging your batteries the battery indicator
may still not have risen, this is because the gauge will only reset when the
batteries are full, the gauge will not elevate one bar at a time whilst charging.
