first trip you should familiarise yourself with the operation of the vehicle, and with all operating 

elements. Take your time to test all functions and driving modes to guarantee yours, and others 

safety.

Battery indictor; this meter shows the capacity of the batteries. It is important to not let your batteries

Diagnostic fault code; if your scooter develops a fault that number needs to be communicated to your 

supplier. 

4.2. Getting on and off 

Warning:

 

Always keep your weight in the middle of the scooter when getting on and off. If you lean heavily 

to one side, the scooter will be unstable. 

Before getting on your scooter 

 

Make sure the ignition is off. You can do this by turning the ignition switch to the off 

position.  When the scooter is off, this prevents the chance that you will accidentally 

operate the throttle lever and thereby injure yourself or others; 

 

Flip up the armrests. 

Getting on your scooter: 

 

Position the seat for safe and easy mounting; 

 

Return tiller to full upright position; 

 

Carefully place one foot on the approximate centre of the deck and seat yourself 

comfortably and securely on the seat; 

 

Fasten the seatbelt, if your scooter is so equipped; 

 

Flip down or replace the armrests; 

 

The seat needs to be rotated to get on the scooter.
