Emergency Brake

A Brief Explanation of How the Brakes Work on Your Scooter.

Your scooter has three braking systems: -

1. The First is the emergency brake. This is situated on the tiller (see image below).

This is a hand-operated brake to be used in an emergency only.

2. The Second is the electromagnetic brake or automatic handbrake. When you move

off, this releases automatically. When the scooter stops, it also engages
automatically and stops the scooter rolling forward or backward.

3. The Third is the regenerative brake. This works when you release the accelerator

lever. The faster you release the lever, the faster the machine slows down. When it
slows down enough, the automatic brake engages.

If you are riding the scooter and you feel there is a problem and the scooter is not braking
correctly, pull in the lever (arrowed) to slow the vehicle. Immediately switch off the ignition
and phone the Service Provider.

Note:

If you should become confused with the braking, just release the lever mechanism and the
vehicle will come to a stop.

DO NOT USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE UNDER NORMAL DRIVING

CONDITIONS.

DO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH YOUR HAND RESTING ON THE

EMERGENCY BRAKE.

This is an

Emergency Brake Only.

Throttle Lever Mechanism.
