Take heed of the information given in this manual regarding safety and the maintenance of your scoot-
er. If adhered to, your scooter should give you years of reliable mobility.
Storage and General Care
We recommend that the scooter is always stored in a dry environment such as a garage or shed to
protect the chassis and other components from corrosion. Do not leave the scooter outside during
rainstorms. If the scooter is wet, wipe with a dry cloth to ensure there is no ingress of water into the
internal components of the scooter.
During everyday use, do not use in rain showers or travel through puddles. Avoid use in areas where
the scooter could become contaminated with sand or abrasive materials.
Note:
Should your scooter fail to operate after checking these possible problems, consult your
local Shoprider dealer immediately.
If the scooter is switched on and not operated for a period of time (approx 10 minutes) it
may enter ‘sleep’ mode. This is indicated by the spanner flashing on / off continuously.
Simply switch the scooter off and on to reset the controller.
