allowing more than one rider at one time,
exceeding the maximum weight limit, going

the vehicle. If the vehicle is overheated, the

motor down and if the condition continues,
will shut off power to the motor. Correct the

overheating, wait 5-10 minutes and then
resume riding. Avoid repeatedly overheating
