Display & Controls
Your Quingo has many features that other scooters do not have. It’s important that you
understand all the functions.
Switch on the ignition and the display will light up.
The information you need to know for now is as follows:
Temperature Gauge:
On the top right hand side of the display in the photograph below
is the number 9c. This is the temperature gauge and it will show the current outside
temperature. Your engineer can set this display in Celcius (as shown below) or in
Fahrenheit.
Battery Gauge:
When fully charged, the battery gauge has 8 bars and these bars will
disappear when your scooter is in use. Starting from right to left the battery is running
down from ‘F’ (Full) to ‘E’ (Empty). Do not let the bars drop below 4 before returning
home and recharging.
Note that battery indicators provide a guide only and are not 100% accurate.
The recommended way of reading the available charge in your scooter is to find a piece
of flat ground clear of obstacles. Switch the scooter to half speed and pull in the throttle
fully. Check the reading on the display, this is your battery state.
Speedometer:
This will display your current speed. Your engineer can set this display in
‘kph’ (kilometres per hour as shown below) or in ‘mph’ (miles per hour).
IMPORTANT NOTES ON THE SPEEDOMETER
The Speedometer is a guide to the speed you are travelling at.
The speed shown has a +. - 15% variance compared to actual speed.
The maximum speed you can travel at will be affected by certain conditions such as:
- TEMPERATURE
- WEIGHT OF THE DRIVER
- TYRE PRESSURES
- TERRAIN
Odometer:
This displays the total distance your Quingo has covered. Your engineer can
set this display in ‘km’ (kilometres as shown below) or in ‘miles’.
IMPORTANT NOTES ON THE ODOMETER
There are many factors that can affect the range of an electric vehicle and these are
detailed in the:
- BATTERY CHARGING
- TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
- COMMON QUESTIONS
