2 General description
The Fortress Calypso is an electrically driven scooter for general indoor and outdoor
use.
The seat height can be adjusted to the length of the user’s legs. The scooter’s seat can
be swivelled and the armrests can be folded away to facilitate sitting down on the
scooter or getting up from the scooter.
The steering column is adjustable for a comfortable driving position.
Extra caution must be paid when driving at higher speeds. Pay attention to your speed
and slow down, particularly on pavements and in pedestrian areas.
The following points should always be remembered when using the scooter:
•
In terms of traffic regulations, a scooter is not a motor vehicle. The rights and
obligations of a scooter user are the same as those of a pedestrian.
•
You are always responsible for your scooter being in perfect working order so that
the scooter can be driven safely.
•
The scooter is a technical product. For this reason it is important that repairs and all
maintenance are carried out by qualified personnel. If your scooter needs attention,
then you must contact your dealer
