Operation
29
Practice taking slightly elevated obstacles. Once you are
practised at these, gradually increase the elevation of the
obstacles, until you can take the maximum height. Take your time
for this.
Driving off obstacles
•
Use extreme caution when driving off obstacles
.
•
Drive straight up to the edge of the sidewalk until you reach the curb.
•
Carefully push the operating handle and allow the scooter to slowly descend
from the curb, without changing direction.
•
It is not permitted to go down stairways.
•
The scooter is equipped with anti-tipping wheels for extra stability
and safety. Occasionally, these wheels may touch an obstacle
when driving down one.
•
Avoid leaving one of the back wheels on the obstacle, while the
other is still on the lower level. This will cause the scooter to
become unstable.

Overload Shutdown
•
In case of overload, caused by wrong or long-term use in hot conditions, the
circuit breaker will be activated, causing the scooter to stop. See ‘Automatic
circuit breaker’.
•
Abuse may also cause unnecessary malfunctions and damage to the
scooter.
4.3.6
Switching off
After each ride, the scooter should be switched off completely: This prevents
the batteries from unnecessarily discharging and having to be recharged too
soon.
