The best way to transport your scooter in the car is to drive the scooter in the car by using ramps.
When you are not experienced to drive the scooter by using of ramps you can also put the scooter in
neutral mode and push the scooter in the car by using ramps.
When the scooter does not fit in the car it is also possible to transport the scooter by the following
steps:
1. Remove all loose parts prior to transporting (seat, etc.)
2. Store loose parts safely.
3. If possible, remove the batteries / battery boxes from the seat to save weight. (As gel batteries
are closed battery systems, removal for the purpose of transportation will cause no problem.)
4. Fold the steering unit down with the angle adjustment.
5. Place the scooter in the car by 2 or 3 persons. (The weight of the frame and steering unit is
115 kg. This is very heavy to carry).
6. Attach the frame of the scooter securely to the vehicle.
2.13 Automatic Power shut down
In order to avoid accidental battery run down, your scooter is equipped with an automatic power shut
down facility. If the scooter is switched on, after remaining undisturbed for a period of thirty minutes it
will automatically turn off. Should this occur, simply switch your scooter off and back on and it will be
ready to use once again.
