higher top end speeds and therefore have a higher load when starting from
a dead stop versus scooters with belt or chain drive, which have a lower top
end speed. The higher gear ration of the DD scooters will cause the Red LED
to illuminate more often compared to other scooters.
When the throttle is disengaged (i.e. no power to the motor due to the
scooter being stationary or coasting) the LED’s on the throttle will indicate
the voltage of the battery pack. The voltage of the battery pack will rise
when no load is on the motor. The best indication of how much battery life is
remaining is to check the throttle LED’s, after reaching cruising speed, on a
flat straight road as this will allow the battery voltage to stabilize and give a
much more accurate reading.
5 MINUTE SLEEP MODE
Scooters are equipped with a 5 minute sleep mode. If no activity is detected
after 5 minutes the scooter will go into stasis mode to conserve the batteries.
To restart, cycle the power switch Off then On.
Never store your scooter in Sleep Mode as battery power
will still be used by the scooter. Always be sure to turn the
power switch to the “OFF” position.
HEAT SHUT-DOWN MODE
If the controller has over-heated and power to the motor has been shut down,
turn the main power switch “OFF” for at least 30 minutes to allow the controller
to cool down before riding any more. Turn the power switch “ON” and resume
riding.
The scooter will shut down due to over-heating caused
by excessive stress on the motor (i.e. too steep a hill, too
heavy a rider, etc.).
bRAkE OPERATION
The Electro-Drive™ electric scooter is equipped with front and/or rear
brakes. It is operated by using the brake lever on the handlebars and is
designed to provide excellent stopping power for your scooter. Squeeze the
brake lever(s) firmly to bring your scooter to a safe, controlled stop.
The brake lever itself should never touch the handlebar or grip when
squeezed firmly. If it does, then immediately STOP RIDING and adjust the
