How often you need to charge your batteries depends on how much you use your mobility scooter or power chair. If you use it daily, plug in and charge the batteries as soon as you’re done for the day, letting them charge for 8 to 14 hours. For occasional use, charge the batteries for 8 to 14 hours twice a week to keep them maintained. Avoid charging longer than 14 hours. Always refer to your battery charger’s manual for specific guidelines.

If you can’t reach your dealer, use our dealer locator to find one nearby. To move your scooter without the key, switch it to freewheel mode using the lever under the seat. This allows you to push it manually in neutral.
