BRAKING INFORMATION

Your scooter is equipped with two powerful brake systems:

1. Regenerative: Uses electricity to rapidly slow the vehicle when the throttle control lever returns to the center/

stop position; and

2. Disc Park Brake: Activates mechanically after regenerative braking slows the vehicle to near stop, or when

power is removed from the system for any reason.

FREEWHEEL MODE

Your scooter is equipped with a manual freewheel lever that when pulled up allows the scooter to be pushed.   For

more information about how to place your scooter into and out of freewheel mode, see V. “Your Rally.”

NOTE: Safety accessories like  fluorescent flags are available to order from your authorized Pride Provider.

INCLEMENT WEATHER PRECAUTIONS

WARNING!  Pride  recommends  that you  do  not  operate  your  scooter  in  icy  or  slippery

conditions or on salted surfaces (i.e., walks or roads). Such use may result in an accident,

personal injury, or adversely affect the performance and safety of your scooter.

WARNING! Do not operate or store your scooter where it may be exposed to inclement

weather conditions such as rain, snow, mist, and below freezing temperatures (such as

storage on an outside car/van lift).  Attempting to operate the scooter in such conditions

can damage the electronics and potentially result in loss of control.

I I .   S A F E T Y

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 behind 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.

Failure to heed the above could result in personal injury and/or damage to your scooter.

WARNING! You should not operate your scooter on public streets and roadways.  Be aware

that it may be difficult for traffic to see you when you are seated on your scooter. Obey all

local pedestrian traffic rules. Wait until your path is clear of traffic, and then proceed with

extreme caution.
