Further safe-riding points
● Make sure to signal clearly when
making turns.
● Braking can be extremely difficult
on a wet road. Avoid hard braking,
because the scooter could slide.
Apply the brakes slowly when stop-
ping on a wet surface.
● Slow down as you approach a cor-
ner or turn. Once you have com-
pleted a turn, accelerate slowly.
● Be careful when passing parked
cars. A driver might not see you and
open a door in your path.
● Railroad crossings, streetcar rails,
iron plates on road construction
sites, and manhole covers become
extremely slippery when wet. Slow
down and cross them with caution.
Keep the scooter upright, otherwise
it could slide out from under you.
● The brake lining could get wet
when you wash the scooter. After
washing the scooter, check the
brakes before riding.
●
Always wear a helmet, gloves, trou-
sers (tapered around the cuff and
ankle so they do not flap), and a
bright colored jacket.
●
Do not carry too much luggage on
the scooter. An overloaded scooter
is unstable. Use a strong cord to
secure any luggage to the carriers.
A loose load will affect the stability
of the scooter and could divert your
attention from the road. (See page
1-3.)
