1.
Do not operate the scooter on public
streets and highways. Be aware that it may

are seated on the scooter. Obey all local
pedestrian traffic rules. Wait until your path
is clear of traffic, and then proceed with
extreme caution.
2.
To prevent injury to yourself or others,
always ensure that the power is switched off
when getting on or off of the scooter.

Always check that the drive wheels are
engaged (drive mode) before driving. Do not
switch off the power when the scooter is
still moving forward. This will bring the
scooter to an extremely abrupt stop.

optional equipment without first completely

contact your dealer before attempting to
use this equipment, otherwise, injury or
damage may occur.
5.
There are certain situations, including some
medical conditions, where the scooter user

member or care professional especially

daily living activities.
