Be a Responsible Owner
As the vehicle’s owner, you are res-
ponsible for the safe and proper ope-
ration of your scooter.
Scooters are single-track vehicles.
Their safe use and operation are
dependent upon the use of proper
riding techniques as well as the
expertise of the operator. Every ope-
rator should know the following requi-
rements before riding this scooter.
He or she should:
●
Obtain thorough instructions
from a competent source on all
aspects of scooter operation.
●
Observe the warnings and main-
tenance requirements in this
Owner’s Manual.
●
Obtain qualified training in safe
and proper riding techniques.
●
Obtain professional technical
service as indicated in this
Owner’s Manual and/or when
made necessary by mechanical
conditions.
Safe Riding
Perform the pre-operation checks
each time you use the vehicle to
make sure it is in safe operating con-
dition. Failure to inspect or maintain
the vehicle properly increases the
possibility of an accident or equip-
ment damage. See page 4-1 for a list
of pre-operation checks.
●
This scooter is designed to carry
the operator and a passenger.
●
The failure of motorists to detect
and recognize scooters in traffic
is the predominating cause of
automobile/scooter accidents.
Many accidents have been cau-
sed by an automobile driver who
did not see the scooter. Making
yourself conspicuous appears to
be very effective in reducing the
chance of this type of accident.
Therefore:
• Wear a brightly colored jacket.
• Use extra caution when you
are approaching and passing
through intersections, since
intersections are the most
likely places for scooter acci-
dents to occur.
• Ride where other motorists can
see you. Avoid riding in anot-
her motorist’s blind spot.
●
Many accidents involve inexpe-
rienced operators. In fact, many
operators who have been invol-
ved in accidents do not even
have a current driver’s license.
• Make sure that you are quali-
fied and that you only lend your
scooter to other qualified ope-
rators.
• Know your skills and limits.
Staying within your limits may
help you to avoid an accident.
• We recommend that you prac-
tice riding your scooter where
there is no traffic until you have
become thoroughly familiar
with the scooter and all of its
controls.
●
Many accidents have been cau-
sed by error of the scooter ope-
rator. A typical error made by the
operator is veering wide on a turn
due to excessive speed or under-
cornering (insufficient lean angle
for the speed).
