By pressing the brake pedal with your right foot you will engage the
friction brakes. Slowing down and stopping your vehicle can also be
done by braking with the motor alone. You can slow down without even
using the brake pedal. This process also recharges the battery and
therefore extends the driving range.

Turn the throttle to accelerate. By releasing the gas handle the vehicle
will automatically use the motor to slow down and stop. The easier you
are on the throttle and brakes, the further one single battery charge
will take you.
Familiarize yourself with the controls on the steer switch before you
start driving.
Please note that for safety reasons, the position lights are always on.
You’ll notice that the centre headlight cannot be switched on. EU-
regulation states that you are not allowed to drive on public roads with
three head lights.
This is the Battery Display Indicator (BDI). It shows you the battery level
and up to date driving information. The number of bars on the display
shows the estimated battery level, not an exact calculation.
The display alternates between 4-6 different screens. The display button
can be used to scroll through these manually:
The BDI also displays codes in case of an error. To know what these error
codes mean, please refer to the troubleshoot section on page 35.
Ub
The amount of volts drawn from the battery
R
RPM (Rotations Per Minute) of the electic motor
A
Total number of amperes drawn from the battery
H
Total driving time of the vehicle in hours
T
Temperature of the controller (on some models)
O
Total mileage of the vehicle in km (on some models)
There is a 12V outlet on the dashboard that is compatible with any 12V car
appliance (max 10A). Be careful with any wires that might get entangled
in the steering wheel. Please note that the range of your vehicle may be
influenced by the type of device that is being used. A phone charger will
hardly affect the range, but a heater will be a bigger drain the battery.
There is also a 12V outlet in the back of the vehicle next to the rear bench.
