FREEWHEEL MODE
Your
Breeze C
is equipped with a manual freewheel lever that, when pushed
forward, allows the
Breeze C
to be pushed. For more information about how to
place your
Breeze C
in and out of freewheel mode, see Chapter 4
– General
description of the
Breeze C
.
WARNING!
When your
Breeze C
is in freewheel mode, the parking system is
disengaged.
Disengage the drive motors only on a level surface.
Ensure the key is removed from the key switch.
Stand beside the
Breeze C
to engage or disengage freewheel mode. Never do this
while sitting on the
Breeze C
.
After you have finished pushing your
Breeze C
, always return it to the drive mode to
lock the brakes (pull the manual freewheel lever backward).
An added feature built into the
Breeze C
is “
push-too-fast
” protection, which
safeguards it against gaining excessive speed while in freewheel mode.
Push-too-fast
operates in two different modes:
If the key is in the OFF position while the
Breeze C
is in freewheel mode, the
Breeze C
s
cooter’s controller activates regenerative braking when it is pushed faster
than the pre-programmed maximum threshold. In this case, the controller is acting as
a speed governor.
If the key is in the ON position while the
Breeze C
is in freewheel mode, you will
encounter considerable resistance at any speed. This prevents the
Breeze C
from
gaining unwanted momentum should the freewheel lever be raised inadvertently while
you are driving the
Breeze C
scooter.
When using this lever, be careful not to touch the internal surface of the motor, as it
could be very hot and cause injury. See the warning label at the rear of the scooter
near the lever.
STAIRS AND ESCALATORS
Breeze C
scooters are not designed to travel up or down stairs or escalators.
Always use an elevator.
WARNING!
Do not use your
Breeze C
scooter to negotiate stairs or escalators.
DOORS
Determine whether the door opens toward or away from you.
Use your hand to turn the knob or to push the handle or push-bar.
If the door opens away from you, drive your
Breeze C
gently and slowly forward to
push the door open.
If the door opens towards you, drive your
Breeze C
gently and slowly backwards to
pull the door open.
S A F E T Y
ELEVATORS
Modern elevators have a safety mechanism on the edge of the door that, when pushed,
reopens the door(s).
If you are in the doorway of an elevator when the door(s) begin to close, push on the
rubber door edge or allow the rubber door edge to contact the
Breeze C
; and the door
will reopen.
Take care that handbags, packages, or
Breeze C
accessories do not become caught
in elevator doors.
NOTE
: Sometimes manoeuvring your
Breeze C
may be difficult in elevators and building
entrances. Use caution when attempting to manoeuvre your
Breeze C
in small spaces,
and avoid areas that might pose a problem.
