Safety  &  Awareness

Parking

There  are  two  ways  to  park  your  Capri  scooter.    One,  is  your  side  kick  stand  and  second,  is  the 

center  stand  kick  stand.  Both  are  located  on  your  left  hand  side  under  the  white  running  board.

Always  park  your  scooter  on  a  hard  road  surface,  sand  and  grass  areas  should  be  avoided.  When 

ever  possible  use  the  center  stand.    Your  Capri  is  much  more  stable  and  secure  on  the  center  stand.

ALWAYS  TURN  OFF  THE  IGNITION  KEY  BEFORE  ATTEMPTING  TO  PUT  YOUR  CAPRI  ON  EITHER  KICK  STAND.

  In  an  upward,  pulling  to  the  rear  of  the  Capri,  rocking  motion,    lift  the  back  of  the  scooter  with 

your  right  at  the  same  time  push  down  with  your  right  foot  on  the  center  stand  pivot  point.  To  fold 

up  the  center  stand,  sit  on  the  scooter  with  both  feet  touching  the  ground.  Place  both  hands  on  the

  handle  bar  grips  and  rock  the  Capri  gently  forward.    The  center  stand,  spring  loaded,  will  tuck  up 

under  the  rocker  panel.
