WARNING!
When cornering sharply, reduce your speed and maintain a stable centre of
gravity. When using your
AFISCOOTER C
at higher speeds, do not corner sharply. This
greatly reduces the possibility of a tip or fall. Always exercise your common sense when
cornering.
BRAKING INFORMATION
Your
AFISCOOTER C
scooter is equipped with two powerful braking systems:
Regenerative: Uses electricity to rapidly slow the vehicle when the throttle control
lever returns to the centre/stop position.
Park Brake: Activates automatically after regenerative braking slows the vehicle to a
near stop, or when power is removed from the system for any reason.
OUTDOOR DRIVING SURFACES
Your
AFISCOOTER C
is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving
conditions, on dry, level surfaces of concrete, tarmac, or asphalt. However, we recognize
that there will be times when you will encounter other surfaces. For this reason, your
AFISCOOTER C
is designed to perform well on packed soil, grass, and gravel. Feel free to
use your
AFISCOOTER C
safely on lawns and in parks.
Reduce your
AFISCOOTER C
speed when driving on uneven terrain and/or soft
surfaces.
Avoid tall grass that can become tangled in the running gear.
Avoid loosely packed gravel and sand.
If you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid it.
PUBLIC STREETS AND ROADWAYS
WARNING!
Do not operate your
AFISCOOTER C
on public streets or roadways.
It may be difficult for traffic to see you when you are seated on your
AFISCOOTER C
. Obey
all local pedestrian traffic rules. Wait until your path is clear of traffic, and then proceed
with extreme caution.
STATIONARY OBSTACLES (STEPS, CURBS, ETC.)
WARNING!
Do not drive near raised surfaces, unprotected ledges, and/or
drop-offs (curbs, porches, stairs, etc.).
WARNING!
Do not try to go up or down an obstacle that is too high.
WARNING!
Do not try to go backward down any step, curb, or other
obstacle. This may cause
AFISCOOTER C
to tip.
WARNING!
Be sure your
AFISCOOTER C
scooter is travelling perpendicular to any curb you
may be required to go up or down.
WARNING!
Do not attempt to climb a curb that is higher than 10 cm (4").
PRECAUTIONS DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER
Avoid exposing your
AFISCOOTER C
scooter to inclement weather.
If you are suddenly caught up in rain, snow, severe cold or heat while operating your
AFISCOOTER C
, proceed to shelter at the earliest opportunity. Thoroughly dry your
AFISCOOTER C
before storing, charging, or operating it.
PROHIBITED!
Do not operate your
AFISCOOTER C
in rain, snow, salt, mist/spray
conditions, or on icy slippery surfaces, as this can have an adverse effect on the electrical
system. Maintain and store your
AFISCOOTER C
in dry and clean conditions.
WARNING!
Prolonged exposure to extreme hot or cold weather may affect the
temperature of the
AFISCOOTER C
parts, possibly resulting in burns. Exercise caution when
using your
AFISCOOTER C
in extremely hot or cold conditions or when exposing your
AFISCOOTER C
to direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time.
