3.2.3 Battery level indicator
The battery status lights will go on from left to right after switching on
the scooter. When the battery is fully charged, all lights will be on. Using
the scooter will decrease the battery charge, and some of the lights on
the right will go out. The more lights are on, the more the battery is still
charged.
The batteries need to be recharged if only the red lights on the left are
on. Keep in mind that the scooter will automatically stop during the ride
when battery charge becomes too low.
In case of any problems, the leftmost red light will start blinking. The number of blinks indicates
the fault code. The meaning of this code can be found in §5.
3.2.4 Driving on slopes
Risk of injuries
•
Do not put your scooter in free-wheel mode on a slope. The scooter may start moving, causing
injuries to you or bystanders.
•
Do not turn when driving down a slope, since the weight of the scooter may cause tipping over.
•
Make sure all four wheel touch the ground while driving up or down.
When you stop on a slope, the brake will work automatically to prevent the scooter from
running forward or backward.
Driving up
•
Drive in a straight line and with higher speed on a slope, and lean slightly forward. When
you drive in an angle or too slow, there is a risk of tipping over or falling.
•
Never reverse on a slope.
Driving down
•
Drive in a straight line (forward or backward) and with lower speed on a slope. When you
drive in an angle or too fast, there is a risk of tipping over or falling.
•
Lean slightly backward during a forward descent; lean slightly forward during a backward
descent.
3.2.5 Coping with obstacles
Risk of injuries by unexpected movement
•
Do not use your scooter on an escalator.
•
Always approach a kerb from the front.
•
Make sure that all wheels make contact to the ground when driving up or down.
Risk of damage
If necessary, take a short run-up to speed up the scooter to mount the obstacle or kerb. Prevent
that you or your scooter has to cope with a large recoil.
