PARKING
Look for a level parking area. If you can’t
park on a paved surface, make sure the
ground surface is firm, especially under
the kickstand. If you must park on a hill,
back the rear tire downhill against the
curb with the Volta at a 45 degree angle
to the curb.
Kickstand
Use the kickstand to support the Volta
while parked.
1. To lower the kickstand, use your
foot to guide it down. Remember that
lowering the kickstand will disable the
drive system.
2. Check that the kick stand is down all
the way.
3. If you have to park on a soft surface,
insert something solid under the kick
stand for support.
Locking the Steering Lock
The steering lock is used to lock the
handlebar in place.
To lock the steering lock:
1. Turn the handlebar all the way to the
left (or right).
2. Insert key into the ignition.
3. Push in on the ignition key and turn
it to the LOCK position (counter clock
wise).
4. Remove the key from the ignition.
Unlocking the Steering Lock
To unlock the steering lock:
1. Insert key into the ignition.
2. Push in on the ignition key and turn it
to the OFF position (clockwise).
Theft-Prevention Tips
• Park your Volta in a locked garage
whenever possible. If a garage isn’t
available, park in a concealed area or
a well-lit area with enough pedestrian
traffic to discourage a thief.
• Always take the ignition key with you.
• Always use the steering lock even if
you’re parking for just a minute or two.
A thief can easily push an unlocked Volta
to a waiting truck.
Off Position
LOCK Position
• In addition to the steering lock, use a
good quality anti-theft device made
specifically to lock a motorcycle to a
secure object.
• Keep your owner’s manual, current
registration, and insurance information
with your Volta. This will make it easier
for the authorities to find you if your
Volta is stolen and recovered.
