TURTLE (Slow speed)
Turn dial counter-clockwise to
reduce the overall top speed
RABBIT (top speed)
Turn dial clockwise to increase
the overall top speed up to the
maximum of 9mph
The overall top speed of the Scoot-E is controlled
via the knob located on the handlebar.
RAbbIT-TURTLE SWITCH
This switch limits the top speed of the Scoot-E. The top speed can vary from
less than 2mph (dial turned all the way to the left) up to 10mph (dial turned
all the way to the right).
HOW TO USE THE THROTTLE LED’S
When the throttle is engaged (powering the motor) and the scooter is in
motion, the LED’s on the throttle indicate instantaneous line voltage as
measured at the battery terminals -- and not the available energy in the
battery pack.
The line voltage will fluctuate depending on the instantaneous load that the
motor is under. For example, when starting out from a dead stop, or going
up a steep hill, the motor will be under a high load and the “Yellow” or even
“Red” LED will illuminate. To a lesser degree, another factor that influences
the load on the motor (and therefore the LED readings) is the gearing of the
motor. Scooters with Direct Drive (DD) gearboxes are geared for slightly
