Use the following to charge batteries of your Rascal scooter.
1. Park the vehicle near a 3-Prong Grounded Electrical Receptacle.
2. Lift the trunk lid and remove the power cord from
the trunk area. Plug power cord into a 3-Prong
Grounded Electrical Receptacle.
3. Check that the needle of the ammeter in the trunk
area registers greater than 1 to ensure that vehicle is
in charge mode. If batteries are fully charged and
have not discharged sufficiently (approx. 2.5% to
5%), the needle on the ammeter will remain at 0, as
shown in Illustration 3 and the needle on the Battery
Level Indicator on the dash will be located to the
extreme right of the green area indicating a full
charge on the battery (and no charging is required).
4. Normal charging time is generally 8-10 hours for
fully discharged batteries. The batteries are fully
charged when the needle of the ammeter is at 0. We
do not recommend that you leave your vehicle in
charge mode. There is no added benefit after
batteries have been fully charged.
5. Disconnect the power plug of the charger from the
wall outlet and return it to the trunk area. Close
trunk lid before proceeding.
Note: Vehicle will not operate while in charge mode.
