Brake Release / Freewheel Operation 
 

The release lever for the electro-
magnetic brake is situated under 
the rear right of the scooter. 
Ensure that the power is switched 
off. 
In the event of power failure or the 
need to move the scooter without 
driving, the electro-magnetic brake 
can be disengaged by a pulling the 
red lever upwards – this will then 
put the scooter in ‘freewheel’ 
mode. To re-engage the brakes 
push the lever down fully and 

ensure that the brake is engaged before 
entering the scooter. 

Release Lever

 
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. Your scooter will 
continually bleep if it is switched on when in this mode. 
 

Starting to Drive 
 

Getting Started 
Note: You must fully charge the batteries prior to first use (see ‘Batteries 
and Charging’) 

Select an area with plenty of space. 
Mount the scooter by either lifting the arm and sliding onto the seat or swivel 
the seat around to access the scooter. 

Ensure the seat is securely locked 

in the forward facing position before driving. 

Adjust the tiller and seat if 

necessary (

see ‘Adjustments’

). 

DO NOT use the tiller to fully support you 

during transfers. 

 

Moving Off 

Turn the key clockwise to turn on the power. Initially set the speed control to a 
low setting. Push your right thumb lever and the scooter will move forward 
slowly. The further you push the lever the faster the scooter will travel, but 
only to the maximum speed that has been selected. Release the lever and the 
scooter will come to a smooth controlled stop. 
 

Caution! DO NOT switch off the power to stop the scooter as this will 
cause the transmission to lock and the scooter will come to a sharp 
stop, which could possibly cause injury. This procedure should only be 
used in an emergency.
