distance, the drive system can be put into "freewheel mode". This will allow your 

scooter to roll freely.

Freewheel Procedure:

To freewheel your scooter first switch off the power switch located on the scooter’s 

control console. Pull up the disengage lever until a distinct click is felt. You can now 

push your scooter with ease. 

Note: in this mode with the power switch in the off position, the braking safety system 

is automatically activated when the scooter is pushed quicker than walking speed, 

this is an automatic ‘run away’ safety checking system, it also reduces the risk of 

casual theft.
