WARNING! The LED lights on the charger indicate different charger conditions at various
times. If the LED does not indicate that charging is complete within 24 hours, unplug the

the battery condition meter will not operate while the batteries are charging (when the battery pack is
being charged on the Travel Scooter).
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How does the charger work?
When your Travel 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. Therefore, when the charger is plugged in, it maintains the charge on your Travel
Scooter's batteries, but does not overcharge them. Refer to the manual supplied with the battery charger
for charging instructions.
Can I use a different charger?
Chargers are selected precisely for particular applications and are especially matched to the type, size,
and chemical formulation of specific batteries. For the safest and most efficient charging of your
Travel Scooter's batteries, we recommend use of the charger supplied as original equipment with your
product only. Any charging method resulting in batteries being charged individually is especially
prohibited.
