Reading Your Battery Voltage; Charging Your Batteries; Batteries And Charging - Pride Mobility Go-Go ELITE TRAVELLER Owner's Manual

I V . B A T T E R I E S A N D C H A R G I N G
Your Travel Scooter requires two long-lasting, 12-volt, deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free.
They are recharged by the supplied off-board charging system.
! Charge your Travel Scooter's batteries for 8 to 14 hours prior to using it for the first time.
! Keep the batteries fully charged to keep your Travel Scooter running smoothly.

READING YOUR BATTERY VOLTAGE

The battery condition meter on the tiller console indicates the
approximate strength of your batteries using a colour code.
From right to left on the meter, green indicates fully charged
batteries, yellow a draining charge and red indicates that an
immediate recharge is necessary. See figure 14. To ensure the
highest accuracy, the battery condition meter should be checked
while operating your Travel Scooter at full speed on a dry, level
surface.

CHARGING YOUR BATTERIES

PROHIBITED! Removal of grounding prong can create electrical hazard. If necessary,
properly install an approved 3-pronged adapter to an electrical outlet having 2-pronged
plug access.
PROHIBITED! Never use an extension lead to plug in your battery charger. Plug the charger
directly into a properly wired standard electrical outlet.
PROHIBITED! Do not allow unsupervised children to play near the Travel Scooter while
the batteries are charging. Pride recommends that you do not charge the batteries while
the Travel Scooter is occupied.
MANDATORY! Read the battery charging instructions in this manual and in the manual
supplied with the battery charger before charging the batteries.
WARNING! Explosive gases may be generated while charging the batteries. Keep the Travel
Scooter and battery charger away from sources of ignition such as flames or sparks and
provide adequate ventilation when charging the batteries.
WARNING! You must recharge your Travel Scooter's batteries with the supplied off-board
charger. Do not use an automotive-type battery charger.
WARNING! Inspect the battery charger, wiring and connectors for damage before each
use. Contact your authorised Pride Provider if damage is found.
WARNING! Ensure that both ends of the charger power lead are clean and dry before
plugging the charger power lead into the charger power lead receptacle or the electrical
outlet.
WARNING! Do not attempt to open the battery charger case. If the battery charger does
not appear to be working correctly, contact your authorised Pride Provider.
WARNING! If the battery charger is equipped with cooling slots, then do not attempt to
insert objects through these slots.
