Important Operating Information
1. Always turn the key switch/power ON/OFF switch
to the OFF position when not actively riding. It is
very easy to forget that the scooter is powered up
because it is silent. An accident can occur if the
scooter is left powered up while getting on or off
the scooter.
2. Turn the key switch OFF when backing up or
pushing the scooter while dismounted. It is possible
to unintentionally twist the throttle, resulting in
unexpected acceleration.
3. Use the rear brake when you are stopped on an
incline. Do not hold the scooter using partial
throttle or damage to the motor may occur .
4. Keep your Vectrix VX-1 connected to the battery
charger when your scooter is sitting in storage or if
it will be sitting unused for more than one month.
WARNING: Charge the Vectrix battery with only
the Vectrix supplied charger. Use of any other
charger may cause a safety issue and will void the
warranty.
