SCOOTER TILLER CONTROLS (FIG 7)  

Speed Controls 

The speed control allows you to set a speed between slow (turtle) and fast (rabbit).  

Battery Level Indicator Gauge 

Where the needle sits, shows the amount of charge left in your batteries. The amount of charge will 

only show at its true level when the scooter is in drive. Always charge the batteries completely 

before beginning out on any journey.  

Caution   Do not allow the gauge needle to go down completely as complete discharge of the 

batteries could cause irreversible battery damage.  

Horn 

A yellow button on top of the tiller operates the horn.  

Thumb Lever Controls 

The left thumb lever controls the reverse and the right thumb lever controls the forward motion. The 

amount of pressure applied to each lever will determine the speed the scooter travels at up to the 

speed selected. Release the thumb lever and the scooter will automatically come to a stop as the 

electromagnetic brake is applied to the motor.  

On/Off Key Switch 

Insert the key into the key switch located on top of the tiller. Turn the key and the battery gauge 

needle will move. There may be a slight delay before the thumb lever control can be operated, while 

the main controller checks the circuits.  

Electromagnetic Brake 

The brake is automatically operated 

when the thumb control levers are 

pressed or released. There is a slight 

delay when the scooter accelerates and 

decelerates; this allows the scooter to 

Safari Lite 4000 smoothly and come to 

a smooth stop.
