WARNING
Turn off the device power when getting in and out of the device.
There is a risk of unexpected movement of the device caused by accidental contact with the
controller.
When driving, fully check the surroundings and road conditions. Drive carefully at low speed
particularly when driving in locations crowded with people, close to walls or other locations
where there are obstacles nearby, and in narrow places or on uneven surfaces or slopes.
Otherwise, there is a risk of accident. When driving on wet inclines, there is a risk that the
device may loose stability. Pay close attention when driving.
When approaching curbs, steps, slopes, and similar obstacles, approach at a 90° angle and
drive over them carefully at low speed.
There is a risk of tipping over or deforming the drive base.
Be sure to lower the foot rest while driving. Also, keep your feet on the foot rest, and prevent
your feet from extending outside the width of the foot rest.
Otherwise, there is a risk that your feet may get caught in the front wheels.
When stopping on a downhill slope, release the controller early, and make sure that the device
stops with an ample amount of extra space around it.
The stopping distance is longer when on a downhill slope. There is a risk that you may be
unable to stop in the intended position, causing an accident.
Release the brakes only when on a fla t surface and in emergencies after turning off the power.
After moving the device manually with the brakes released, raise the brake release levers and
lock the brakes.

be driven.
