•
Release thumb lever and allow scooter to stop completely before changing from forward
to reverse, or reverse to forward.
•
When turning to a corner, swing the front wheels widely, so the back wheels will turn
more tightly.
•
Use scooter only where it is safe for walking.
•
Use low speed when in reverse, going downhill, climbing curbs, on ramps, or on
uneven surfaces.
Keep in mind these rules
:
Hill climbing:
You may need to use a higher speed for hill climbing. For a higher speed,
set the speed control toward the image of the rabbit.
Down slopes:
Proceed with downward slowly and set speed control toward the image
of turtle. This will give the driver better control, as scooter will travel slower.
The automatic braking system will not allow acceleration on down slopes.
Curb climbing:
Approach slowly at right angles to the curb. A direct approach is needed.
Do not attempt to climb curbs greater than a 2" for the HS-265 and 1.2"
for the HS-295.
If Self-Diagnostic Warning Light start to blink, identify problem from the
chart on page 18 and take action.
If scooter does not function and must be moved, dismount the scooter,
push Free-Wheeling Lever forward to disable drive and brake system.
Move scooter slowly to a safe location, and push
Free-Wheeling Lever
backward to take scooter out of free wheel mode.
Other Operating Information
