Pedaling
This scooter is designed to be a motor-assisted bicycle. You can use the motor by itself,
but ideally, you can work with the motor by pedaling. This increases the distance you can
travel on your scooter, because it assists the motor and reduces the amount of electricity
you draw from the battery.
Riding in Wet Weather
Your scooter is designed to function in wet conditions, such as when it is raining. However,
because the motor is on the rear wheel, it is easy to slip when moving at high speeds. If it
is very wet, be sure to avoid high speeds.
When you are traveling in wet weather, water may cause your brakes to function less ef-
fi ciently because it reduces friction between the brake pads and the wheels. Take care to
slow down and give yourself more room to stop or slow if necessary.
The Motor and Water
Your scooter is not designed to be immersed in water. Always ensure that the water level
does not go above the middle of the tire, to prevent water from getting inside the motor.
Water in the motor can cause short-circuits and may damage the electrical systems in your
scooter.
Riding in Cold Weather
Your scooter is designed to operate year-round. However, in very cold conditions or when
there is a lot of snow or slush on the ground, it is possible for the motor in the scooter to
get wet or for the brakes to function less effi ciently, just as can happen in wet weather.
Below
10 degrees Celsius, the battery will not work as well as it would in warmer temperatures.
While Lithium-Ion batteries perform better than Lead-Acid batteries in temperature ex-
tremes, both will experience reduced performance in cold temperatures.
Also, riding the scooter in cold temperatures may require you to replace the battery soon-
er rather than later.
