Inspecting your Electric Scooter
Always inspect your scooter before you ride it, to make sure its safety features are operat-
ing properly. Many accidents can be avoided with routine inspections. Once you are com-
fortable with your scooter, you will be able to detect small changes in the way it feels. If
anything changes between uses, make sure to have it properly examined. Also, be sure to
listen for changes in the sounds your scooter makes over time. Any mechanical or power
issues may have eff ects on the sounds the bicycle makes.
Turning your Scooter On and Off
To turn on your scooter, insert the key into the “ignition”, located just below the dash
board, and turn the key to the right. When your scooter is activated, the power indicator
will light and the battery charge indicator will jump, showing you how much power your
scooter has. To turn off the scooter, simply turn the key to the left, and remove the key.
Warning
When you activate the scooter, the electrical system becomes live. Do not try to aff ect
changes to the Scooter (such as removing the battery or repairing electrical components)
while the Scooter is activated. Turn the Scooter off and remove the key before you at-
tempt to access any of the electrical components. Also, the battery carries a signifi cant
electric charge and can injure people if not treated properly and with respect.
Accelerating and Decelerating
The throttle is found on the right-side hand grips on the steering column. Depress the
right lever to move forward, and depress the left lever to reverse.
Warning
Do not activate the accelerator until you are seated on the bicycle and are ready to accel-
erate. The scooter can easily escape from your control, possibly injuring you or others, and
the scooter may be damaged by being dropped.
