Do not operate your scooter under the influence of alcohol. Consumption of alcohol
may impair your ability to operate your scooter safely.
Some physical impairments or the use of prescription and nonprescription medication
may limit your ability to operate your scooter safely. Be sure to consult with your
physician about your physical limitations and medications.
2.2 Operation - Slopes
When driving downhill, select the slowest speed and proceed with caution. Driving
down a slope may shift the user’s center of gravity forward. If the scooter rolls faster
than you would like, stop the scooter by releasing the joystick and begin descending
again more slowly.
Avoid sudden stops or starts. Stop by releasing the joystick rather than by turning the
power off. Turning off power while the scooter is in motion will cause the scooter to stop
suddenly.
When driving up a slope, try to keep moving at a steady speed. Stopping and starting
the scooter while moving up a slope makes the scooter more difficult to control.
Do not drive up or down slopes with gradients greater than those set forth in the
technical specifications section of this User’s Manual. There is a risk that the scooter will
not maneuver safely.
Do not drive up or down ramps that are not equipped with proper edge protection
along the sides to prevent the scooter from falling off the ramp.
Do not drive up or down hazardous inclines such as a surfaces covered with snow, ice,
or wet leaves, or a surface that is uneven.
2.3 Operation - Turning
Turning your scooter at high speeds may cause it to topple with personal injury as a
result. The risk of tipping over is increased by high turning speeds, sharp turns, uneven
surfaces, abrupt changes in direction, and driving from an area of low traction (e.g.
lawn) to an area of high traction (e.g. sidewalk). To avoid tipping over, personal injury
and property damage, reduce speed and turn less sharply.
2.4 Driving
The Driving Range stated in the technical specifications of this manual represents the
theoretical driving range, actual driving ranges will vary depending on battery status,
tire selection and driving conditions. Frequent driving on slopes, rough ground or
frequently climbing curbs etc., will also reduce the driving range.
