LIFT/ELEVATION PRODUCTS
If you will be traveling with your scooter, you may find it necessary to use a lift/elevation product to aid in
transportation. It is recommended that you closely review the instructions, specifications, and safety
information set forth by the manufacturer of the lift/elevation product before using that product.
WARNING! Do not use your scooter to negotiate stairs or escalators. You may cause injury to
yourself and to others and damage your scooter.
STAIRS AND ESCALATORS
Scooters are not designed to travel up or down stairs or escalators. Always use a lift.
WARNING! If you anticipate being seated in a stationary position for an extended period of time,
turn off the power. This will prevent unexpected motion from inadvertent throttle control lever
contact. Failure to do so may result in personal injury.
WARNING! 55 AH batteries weigh approximately 19 kg (41 lbs.) each. If you are unable to lift that
much weight, be sure to get help. Lifting weight above your capacity to do so could result in
personal injury.
WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds.
Wash hands after handling.
WARNING! Always protect the batteries from freezing and never charge a frozen battery. Charging
a frozen battery may result in personal injury and/or damage to the battery.
BATTERIES
In addition to following the warnings below, be sure to comply with all other battery handling information.
For more information about your scooters batteries,
