8. Slowing Down and Braking
Quickly release throttle grip or rotate backwards (clockwise) to
decelerate scooter. Squeeze both brake levers simultaneously to
bring scooter to a stop. It is advisable to reduce the speed by gradual
application of the brakes. Combined application of both brakes is
recommended for maximum stopping power and even brake wear.
Caution
² Using only the front or rear brake individually may cause a side
slide. Harsh braking and sharp turning are two of the major causes
of loss of traction and crashes.
Damp or wet road surfaces may reduce level of grip and cause skidding.
Sharp turning during acceleration should be avoided, and an appropriate
distance should be kept from the vehicles ahead. Please be mindful that the
braking distance can double in rainy an icy condition.
Skidding may occur on wet roads, therefore concentrate, and be ready to
apply the brakes cautiously at any time. Check brakes after washing scooter
or riding through water.
After washing the scooter or riding through standing water, braking effect
may be reduced. If this occurs, observe slow riding and gentle braking to allow
time for the brakes to restore to normal function.
Caution
² To prevent scooter from falling off main stand, never park scooter
facing down on a slope, or park it on a loose or soft surface.
When parking scooter, lock handleb a r to prevent theft.
Special care should be taken in rainy and wintery conditions.
Lock the handlebar
