Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the RMA/Shoprider®
Perrero
scooter.
This scooter incorporates comfort and style with the latest in technology. With
all round suspension and large wheels, you will find the
Perrero
comfortable
and easy to manoeuvre. It is also complemented with a full light set that
includes front and rear lights, indicators and hazard warning lights enabling it
to be used on public roads.
Intended Use
The
Perrero
was carefully designed for persons with limited mobility. It is for
indoor / outdoor use by a single occupant up to a maximum weight of 136kg /
21st.
The intended user should possess the necessary physical and visual skills to
operate the scooter safely. If you have any doubt, please consult your dealer /
prescriber.
The RMA
Perrero
is a Class 3 invalid carriage and is not legally defined as a
motor vehicle, and therefore the user is not required to possess a driving
license. It is exempt from MOT certification. It must however be registered
with the DVLA and display a nil duty vehicle license (tax disk).
A Class 3 / C vehicle can only be used by a person suffering from some
physical defect or physical disability aged 14 or over, or by an able bodied
person who is demonstrating a vehicle before sale, training a disabled user or
taking the vehicle to or from a place for maintenance or repair.
A Class 3 / C vehicle can be used on public roads, but not on motorways,
cycle lanes or bus lanes. When used on pavements or in pedestrian areas the
scooter
MUST
be switched to its lower speed limit (see page 6). It is not
recommended that the scooter is used on a dual carriageway, but if it is
necessary an amber coloured flashing beacon must be used to warn other
road users of your presence. Always seek an alternative route wherever
possible.
It is important that the user reads and understands the safety advice given
within this manual before attempting to operate the product to avoid possible
injury to the user or bystanders and avoid damage to the scooter or
surrounding property.
