Warning:
When your scooter is in freewheel mode, the park brake is released. The weight
of the scooter on a slope may cause you to lose control of the scooter. If you do
not feel capable of manually controlling your scooter down the slope, request
assistance or do not attempt to use this procedure.
4.8 Motor braking system
Your scooter is equipped with a system that uses the motor to aid in braking. This
motor brake system is designed to work when the key is in either the “On position” or
the “Off position”. When the key is in the “On position”, the freewheel is in the
engaged position, and the scooter is under power, the motor will help slow down the
scooter as soon as you take your hand off of the throttle lever.
When the key switch is in the “Off position” and the freewheel is in the disengaged
position, the motor brake system will keep you form pushing the scooter too fast (for
example down a slope) you may notice this when pushing the scooter. The scooter will
move freely until you reach a certain speed. You will then encounter some resistance
as the motor brake system is activated.
4.9 EMI / RFI
The rapid development of electronics, especially in the area of communications, has
saturated our environment with electromagnetic (radio) waves that are emitted by
television transmitters, cellular phones, citizen’s band radios (CBs), amateur radios
(ham radios), wireless computer links, microwave transmitters, paging transmitters,
etc. These electromagnetic (EM) waves are invisible and increase in strength the closer
one gets to the source of transmission. When these energy waves act upon electrical
devices and cause them to malfunction or to function in an erratic or uncontrolled
manner, they are referred to as Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) of Radio
Frequency Interference (RFI).
EMI / RFI and your scooter
All electrically powered vehicles, including scooters are susceptible to Electromagnetic
Interference / Radio Frequency Interference (EMI / RFI). This interference could result
in abnormal, unintended movement of your scooter.
Warning:
Unintended movement or brake release could cause an accident or injury.
