Brake Release / Freewheel Operation
The free wheel release lever is located inside the right rear wheel to
disengage the motor lift up leaver (the scooter can now be pushed), to re-
engage the motor push down on the leaver. The scooter when switched to the
on position will bleep if the scooter is in free wheel mode, do not depend on
this audible warning if the batteries are exhausted there may be no sound
please check manually.
Warning – Always re-engage the free wheeling device after use. Failure
to do so may result in injury
Caution! Never leave the scooter
unattended whilst in freewheel mode as it
will roll away down an incline. ‘Freewheel’
mode should only be used in an
emergency to move the scooter due to
power failure. NEVER move the scooter in
this mode whilst it is occupied.
When in freewheel mode the scooter may
be pushed at a walking pace. The scooter
will ‘auto-brake’ if this speed is exceeded.
