OMEO EVOLUTION USER MANUAL
Shutting down your
Omeo
1. Power off your Omeo by pressing and holding
the Power / Standby button on the InfoKey™
Controller for two seconds
2. The display on the InfoKey™ Controller will
show a sleepy face and a tone will emit from
the Omeo as it powers off.
NOTICE
Make sure the Stabilising Legs are down before
you power off. Refer also to the Segway PT User
Manual (Pg. 76).
Securing your Omeo
The Omeo uses the Segway PT security system.
Refer to the Segway PT User Manual (Pg. 75).
The Security function is essential in case you need
to leave your Omeo unattended. When activated,
an alarm sounds and the motors are engaged
making the Omeo difficult to move.
