Default Please Help!

I just got my pede today and ran the battery down low. It is still somewhat going, but I want to recharge it. DOES IT HAVE TO BE DEAD EMPTY?

you shouldnt run it dead. just run it till you notice a loss in power. Then cool and recharge. Running it dead will shorten its lifespan.

No, it should not be dead empty. You should run the car until you notice a noicable drop in performance. That should give you just enough time to pull it in and take out the battery.
You should never drain conpletely.
