Emergency Stop (Figure 1, G)
To stop the Chauffeur in an emergency, press in on the
Emergency Stop Button. The Emergency Stop Button
is the large red button on the right side of the touch
pad. The flashing LED indicates the Emergency Stop
button has been pressed. To restart the Chauffeur
after the Emergency Stop Button has been pressed,
the Emergency Stop Button must be turned clockwise
to release.
Battery Status Indicator (Figure 1, H)
The Battery Status Indicator located on bottom of the
Chauffeur touch pad indicates when the Chauffeur’s
batteries need to be recharged. If the battery status
indicator shows green, the batteries are charged. If
the battery status indicator shows yellow, the batteries
need to be charged as soon as possible. If the
battery status indicator shows just red (either steady
or flashing slowly), the batteries need to be charged
immediately.

Speed Modes
The Chauffeur control handle provides variable speed
modes, from FAST (Rabbit: Figure 1, B) to SLOW
(Turtle: Figure 1, C). The FAST/SLOW buttons, located
on the right side of the Chauffeur touch pad, allows
selection of the desired speed mode. Depressing
SLOW enables the low speed mode, whereas FAST
enables a comfortable walking pace. Always select the
slow mode in close quarters. The speed mode applies
to both forward and reverse directions as well as side
to side.
