Thumb Lever Control: 

The left thumb lever controls the reverse and the right thumb lever controls the

scooter will travel. Releasing the lever will slow the scooter to a safe stop and the 
electro-magnetic brakes will apply automatically.

Indicator Switch: 

This switch operates the indicator lights of the scooter. Please use the indicators

Brake Release / Freewheel Operation 

 
The release lever for the electro-
magnetic brake is situated under the 
rear left of the scooter. Ensure that 
the power is switched off. 
In the event of power failure or the 
need to mover 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. 

 
 

 

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.
