WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds.
Wash hands after handling.
WARNING! Do not expose the electronics to any type of moisture at any time (rain, snow, mist, or
washing the Scooter). Such exposure can damage the electronics. Never attempt to ride a Scooter
that has been exposed to moisture until it has dried.
WARNING! Do not operate or store the Scooter where it may be exposed to inclement weather
conditions such as rain, snow, mist, and below-freezing temperatures (such as storage on an
outside car or van lift). Attempting to operate the Scooter in such conditions can damage the
electronics and potentially result in loss of control.
WARNING! Do not operate a Scooter in icy or slippery conditions or on salted surfaces (i.e.,
pavement or roads). Such use may result in an accident, personal injury, or adversely affect the
performance and/or safety of your Scooter.
WARNING! Always protect batteries from freezing temperatures and never charge a frozen battery.
This damages the battery and may cause personal injury. Attempting to charge a battery in
freezing conditions does not prevent a battery from freezing.
