BATTERIES AND CHARGING-FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQS)
How does the charger work?
When your Legends battery voltage is low, the charger works harder and sends more electrical current to the
batteries to bring up their charge. As the voltage of the batteries approaches a full charge, the charger sends less
and less electrical current to the batteries. When the batteries are fully charged, the current sent to them from the
charger is at nearly zero amperage. Therefore, when the charger is plugged in, it maintains the charge on your
Legends batteries, but does not overcharge them. We do not recommend that you charge your Legends batteries
for more than 24 consecutive hours.
What if the Legends batteries wont charge?
n Be sure the battery cables are connected properly.
n Are both ends of the charger cord inserted fully?
n Examine the 5-amp charger fuse. If the fuse is blown the batteries will not charge. See figures 9 and 10.
Can I use a different charger?
For the safest, most efficient and balanced charging of your Legends batteries, we prefer and highly recommend
the simultaneous charging of both batteries by use of the onboard battery charger.
How often must I charge the batteries?
Two major factors must be considered when deciding how often to charge your Legends batteries:
n All day scooter use on a daily basis.
n Infrequent or sporadic scooter use.
With these considerations in mind, you can determine just how often and for how long you should charge your
Legends batteries. We designed the onboard charger so that it will not overcharge your scooters batteries (do not
charge them for more than 24 consecutive hours). 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 five guidelines
below will provide safe and reliable battery operation and charging.
n If you use your Legend daily, charge its batteries as soon as you finish using it for the day. Your Legend will be ready
each morning to give you a full day of service. We recommend that you charge your Legends batteries for 8 to 14
hours after daily use.
n If you use your Legend once a week or less, charge its batteries at least once a week for 12 to 14 hours at a time.
n Keep your Legends batteries fully charged.
n Avoid deeply discharging your Legends batteries.
n Do not charge your Legends batteries for more than 24 consecutive hours.
