Main Circuit Breaker (Reset Button)
When the voltage in the batteries becomes low or your
scooter is heavily strained because of excessive loads,
the main circuit breaker may trip to protect the motor and
electronics from damage. When the breaker trips, the entire
electrical system shuts down. See figure 8.
!
The reset button pops out when the breaker trips.
!
Allow a minute or so for the electronics to “rest.”
!
Push in the reset button to reset the breaker.
!
If the breaker trips frequently, you may need to charge
the batteries more often or have your authorised Pride
Provider perform a load test on the batteries.
!
If the main circuit breaker trips repeatedly, see your
authorised Pride Provider for service.

Manual Freewheel Lever
Whenever you need or want to push your scooter for short distances, you can put it in freewheel mode.
1. Remove the key from the key switch.
2. Push forward on the manual freewheel lever to disable the drive system and the brake system. This will enable
you to push the scooter.
3. Pull back on the manual freewheel lever to reengage the drive and the brake systems and take your scooter out
of freewheel mode.
WARNING! When your scooter is in freewheel mode, the braking system is disengaged.
!
Disengage the drive motors only on a level surface.
!
Ensure the key is removed from the key switch.
!
Stand to the side of the scooter to engage or disengage freewheel mode. Never sit on
a scooter to do this.
!
After you have finished pushing your scooter, always return it to the drive mode to lock
the brakes.
NOTE: If the scooter is placed in freewheel mode (manual freewheel lever forward) while the key is in
the “on” position, the scooter will not run until the manual freewheel lever is pushed rearward and the
key is turned to the “off” position, then back to the “on” position.
