GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SCOOTER
9
WARNING!
When descending an incline, use the
slowest speed possible. If the descent is faster
than you desire, release the throttle control lever to
stop the scooter. Then press the throttle control lever
slightly to control the speed of your descent.
WARNING!
The maximum recommended incline
angles (see specifications) are tested in a
controlled environment. Your scooter’s ability to climb
up inclines is affected by your weight, speed and the
angle you approach the incline among other factors.
WARNING!
Only drive backwards on a flat
surface. When driving backwards, operate your
scooter at a lower and even speed. Stop often and
check to make sure your path is clear of obstacles. To
prevent tipping, do not travel down an incline or ramp
backwards.
WARNING!
To avoid overloading the scooters
and potential tipping, never carry anything or fill
the basket with contents weighing more than 15lbs
(6.8kg).
WARNING!
Avoid any change of position or
movement that may change your center of
gravity while sitting on the scooter. This may cause your
scooter to tip.
WARNING!
A drop-off (as small as 2 inches) at
the bottom of a slope can stop a front wheel and
cause the scooter to tip forward.
WARNING!
Never reach or lean if you must shift
your weight sideways or rise up off the seat.
WARNING!
Never reach or lean if you must move
forward in your seat to do so. Always keep your
buttocks in contact with the backrest.
WARNING!
Never try to pick up an object from
the floor by reaching down between your knees.
