Hazardous Conditions
WARNING: Do not drive the BugE in unsafe conditions.
Weather conditions play a major part in vehicle safety. As with any vehicle, you
must take extra precautions during bad weather and road conditions.
Visibility
Poor visibility obviously makes it harder for you to see and harder to be seen.
Like a motorcycle, the BugE does not have windshield wipers.
If your BugE is equipped with a defroster fan use it to help reduce fogging.
Always carry a Chamois cloth to remove condensation
Always apply RainEx to the Canopy to help water bead up and roll off.
Always apply AntiFog to the inside of the Canopy to prevent fogging.
Road Conditions
As with a bicycle or motorcycle, avoid pot holes and rutted surfaces. Slow down.
POT HOLES, WATER AND MUD can damage the tires, wheels and the motor.
Braking
Wet weather will increase braking distances and can cause skidding. Slow down.
Traction
Wet and snowy weather will reduce traction and contribute to skidding around
corners and when accelerating. Reducing tire pressure to 30 psi (normal
pressure is 35psi) may help somewhat. If you skid, steer in the direction of the
skid.
Wind
Once again, like bicycles and motorcycles, you are subject to the same effects of
wind. Gusty and windy conditions will affect the stability and your control of the
BugE. If you feel buffeted by wind, slow down or stop in a sheltered area until
the wind calms down.
CAUTION:
•
Always park the BugE facing the wind to avoid damage.
• Park under shelter in stormy conditions.
• Apply the parking Brake.
