Driving the Vehicle
1.
Before you set out,
do check the weather forecast. We suggest that you make sure you are wearing
suitable clothing, whether your journey is long or short.
2.
Range.
Your scooter has a limited range. Always ensure that your planned journey does not exceed the
maximum range in the Technical Specification Sheet and that your battery is fully charged.
3.
If you are taking medication
check with your doctor or physician that your ability to control the vehicle
will not be impaired and do not drink alcohol and drive.
4.
Only use the vehicle for the purpose its intended for.
Do not drive through water or on slippery
surfaces; do not transport more than one person; do not tow other vehicles or carry excess weight.
5.
Check that the freewheel lever is not in the freewheel position / mode.
6.
Check the battery charger is disconnected.
7.
Check that you are properly seated.
8.

Check that none of the items in your storage compartment are likely to fall out or become
entangled in the scooter wheels or other mechanisms.
10. Ensure your feet are securely on the footrest areas.
11. Check you have adjusted the seat as instructed in this manual.

14. Speed Control.
Set the speed control to a low setting.
15. Gently actuate the finger controls (either forward or reverse) and steer in the direction required.
The vehicle will now move off. The further you pull the paddle (either forward or reverse) the faster the
vehicle will go.
16. To brake, return the paddles to the starting/neutral position. If you become unsure or feel
unsafe release the paddles immediately.
Note:
Never push or pull both paddles at the same time as you may damage your scooter's control
system and cause it to behave erratically.
17. As you get accustomed to the power you can increase the speed.
Warning! Read this before driving the vehicle!
Whether or not this is your first mobility
vehicle, please read these guidelines as all vehicles differ. Failure to do this may cause damage to you,
a third party or the vehicle.
