OPERATION
Before riding off, use the scooter’s turn signals to signal
your intention to merge into traffic. Always scan around
you and in the rear view mirrors so you are aware of other
traffic. Use caution as you merge into traffic, keeping to
the right until you match the pace of the traffic.
4. Control the scooter’s speed with the throttle grip.
Rotating the grip towards you
1
will increase the scooter’s
speed.
Rotating the grip away from you
2
will decrease the
scooter’s speed.
NOTE: Decreasing the scooter’s speed with a balanced
application of both brake levers and a reduction of throttle
will reduce the distance required to stop.
3. Release the rear brake and slowly rotate the throttle grip so
the engine power will be transmitted to the rear wheel
smoothly.

NOTE: Do not “BLIP” the throttle (opening and closing
it rapidly) as the scooter can lunge forward suddenly.

brakes

.
Both the front and rear brakes should be applied to-
gether, as independent use of only the front or rear brake
reduces stopping performance.
Excessive brake application may cause either wheel to
lock, reducing your ability to control your scooter.
