Steering
Steering the scooter is light and easy. Ensure you give obstacles a wide clearance
to avoid the rear wheels catching. When steering through limited spaces, turn the
tiller in the direction that you wish to go and apply power gently. The scooter can
turn very tightly with complete stability at slow speeds.
Caution! NEVER turn sharply athigh speeds as it can make the scooter
unstable. The maximum speed should be set at 50%.
Reversing
Before reversing ensure the area behind the scooter is free from any obstacles or
hazards. Adjust the speed setting tolow before you reverse. Steer wide of all
corners and obstacles.
Caution! Do not reverse onto a main thoroughfare.
Ramps / Slopes
The stability of your scooter depends on several factors such as seat height, angle
of gradient and the users height and weight. When approaching an incline, do so
directly and not at an angle and avoid making turns where possible.
Surfaces
Your scooter will perform well over many surfaces. However, avoid long grass,
loose gravel, sand, mud and ice.

Lift up the armpad from the side yoh to leave or sit on the scooter. Use an u wis
aid for balance if required. DO NOT use the tiller or armrests to support the full
weight during transfers.
