3.9 Transport
The scooter can be placed in a car.
The best way to do this is by using
steel planking, across which the
scooter is pushed into the car. The
scooter may also be lifted; this
requires at least two strong persons.

Considering the nature of the
scooter, the user is supposed to
make a transfer to a regular car
seat. You may not be
transported in a car or taxi while
sitting on the scooter, even if the
vehicle concerned has been
adapted for the transport of
scooters. The reason for this is
that a scooter cannot offer the
level of safety that is offered by
standard car seats, no matter
how well the scooter is fixed to
the vehicle concerned.
•
After the scooter has been
placed in the car, you must make
sure that the free wheel lever is
in the
Drive position.
•
The scooter must be secured
with lashing straps at the tie-
down points on the front and
back of the frame.
3.10 Seat adjustments
Backrest
1. Seat yourself on the seat and pull
up the handle (A). The backrest will
move forward.
2. Press the backrest backward by
leaning back to a position that is
most comfortable for you. Then
push the handle down to secure
the backrest in the position you
have chosen.
Do not operate the handle if the seat
is unoccupied, because then the
backrest will come forcefully
forward.
Lower-backrest
Seat yourself on the seat and turn the
knob (B) in such a way that the lower-
backrest reaches the most optimal
position for you.
Armrest
Turn the wheel (C) to adjust the height
and angle of the armrest.
If the position of the backrest is
adjusted, this will affect the position
of the armrests.
