PREFACE
First of all we want to thank you for putting your trust in us by selecting one of our Scooters.
The expected working life of your vehicle depends essentially on your care and maintenance. This
instruction manual will help you to familiarize yourself with the operation of your Scooter and advise
you on keeping your it in a good operating condition to ensure a long working life.
This instruction manual reflects the latest level of development of the product. However, our firm,
Vermeiren, reserves the right to introduce changes without any obligation to adapt or replace
previously delivered models.
Keep in mind that your Scooter will remain in an excellent working condition and keep on functioning
perfectly even after many years, on condition that you follow our advice.
For any further questions please consult your specialist dealer.
GENERAL NOTES
The electric Scooter has been designed for outside uses. Only a few models are suitable for inside
uses thanks to their specific type of construction. However, users must make sure that the Scooter’s
turning circle diameter and uses comply with the space inside.
When using your Scooters on streets or footpaths, please obey existing laws and regulations.
You do not need a driver’s license nor vehicle insurance with the models limited to a top speed of six
km/h. But for various reasons we recommend that you nonetheless take out insurance.
For the models capable of exceeding 6km/h, you will need a driver’s license. These models’ Contents
of the Consignment include an operating permit meeting road traffic licensing regulations that you
must present to your insurer.
Use only the supplied battery charger and no other charging equipment.
We wish to point out that sources of electromagnetic waves (e.g. cell phones) are liable to create
interferences. The electronics of the scooter itself could affect other electric appliances too.
Even if you have been informed by your specialist dealer about the operational elements of your
scooter and their use, we recommend that you read the following pages very carefully.
We reserve the right to introduce technical changes. Our general business conditions apply.
