To ensure maximum performance, longer durability, and
safe operation, always check and adjust the tire pressure
before operating your scooter.
NOTE:
*Tire pressure should be checked and adjusted when tire
temperature equals the ambient air temperature. Tire
pressure must be adjusted according to the total weight
of cargo, rider, passenger, accessories, and vehicle speed.
Refer to tire walls for proper inflation pressure.
Tires
Make sure the total weight of the cargo, rider, passen-
ger, and accessories do not exceed the maximum
loading limit of your scooter. Operating overloaded
scooter could cause tire rupture, an accidents, and
injuries.
NOTE:
Proper loading affects several characteristics of
your scooter, such as handling, braking, accelera-
tion, and safety. Do not carry loosely packed items
that can shift during travel. Securely pack your
heaviest items close to the center of your scooter
and distribute the weight evenly from side to side.
Properly adjust the suspension to your load, and
check the condition and pressure of your tires.
Tire Inspection
Always check the tires before operating your scooter.
Contact a dealer if center tread depth reaches the limit as
show, if the tire has a nail or glass fragments in it, or if the
sidewall is cracked, and have the tire immediately replaced.
Minimum Tire Tread Depth:
Front:1.5mm
