Safety warning and user guidance
Batteries
Always check the batteries are
sufficiently charged before setting
off.
Always ensure that your batteries
are in good condition and that no
leakage has occurred.
Beware, battery fluids are
corrosive and care should be
taken at all times to avoid contact
with it. If it comes into contact with
the skin or clothing, wash
immediately with soap and water.
If it comes into contact with the
eye, immediately flood the eye
with running cold water for at least
10 minutes and seek medical
attention.
Keep
batteries upright at all times,
especially when transporting your
scooter.
Always follow the procedures
for battery charging set out in
Pages 25 - 29.
Always charge your batteries in a
room with good ventilation.
Do not
charge your batteries in
outdoor conditions.
Do not
expose any part of your
charger, battery or scooter to
direct heat (i.e. Gas fires or naked
flame).
Tyres
Your scooter has solid tyres all
round. They do not require
inflation.
It is good practice to inspect the
tyres for damage or wear,
regularly.
Emergency Braking
Turning off the power switch whilst
moving will switch off the power
causing immediate and full
braking. This method of stopping
is not recommended except in an
emergency.
Caution!
Routine use of emergency braking
will cause damage to your
scooter.
Freewheel mechanism
Caution!
Transporting the scooter along a
slope in freewheel mode can be
dangerous. Take extra care if this
is necessary. Always re-engage
the freewheel device after use.
Never sit on your scooter whilst in
freewheel since the scooter will no
longer automatically stop.
