RIDING
NOTE:
If the unit is at the ON position for over 10-15 minutes without moving, Smart
Power will shut the scooter OFF. To turn the scooter back on, simply press the
ON/OFF button again.
1. Make sure that all of the bolts and screws are tightened.
2. Raise the kickstand to its upright position.
3. PRESS THE ON/OFF Button once. (FIG. 5) The LED light
will blink RED and then turn GREEN (indicating the ION 450
is ON and ready to ride).
4. Put one foot on the deck of the ION 450. After pushing off
with the other foot, gently squeeze the ACCELERATOR
LEVER on the right side of the handlebars. The Power
Board will begin to move on its own power.
5. Your ION 450 has a variable speed throttle lever. You can control the speed of
your scooter by the amount of pressure you use when depressing the throttle
lever. The more you depress the throttle the faster you will go.
6. To stop, release the accelerator handle and depress the BRAKE LEVER (on the
left side of the handlebars).
7. When you feel your Power Board moving slow, sluggish or running out of power,
it is time to recharge. (See charging instructions)
•
Note: DO NOT allow the batteries to fully discharge. This can damage the
batteries and prevent them from taking a full charge.
Quick Release Deck
The ION 450 is equipped with a quick release deck to
make it easier to get to the batteries and the pc board.
To open the deck, lift the rear of the deck up. (FIG. 6)
