battery failure. As well as charging after every use it is

period of time, remember to charge the battery once
a week to keep in good condition.

For advice ask in-store.
* Always have your batteries installed by a properly trained
wheelchair or scooter technician. They have the necessary
training and tools to do the job safely and correctly.

without regularly charging them fully.
* On completion of the charging cycle , turn off the charger
and unplug from the mains, also unplug from the scooter.

weeks, charge the batteries first and then disconnect them
