WARNING! Prior to operating your scooter, familiarize yourself with the location and use of
controls, including the tiller for steering and the throttle for accelerating. During operation,
keep both hands on the tiller at all times to assure safe operation of the scooter. Failure to
release the throttle when stopping the scooter can result in collision with people or objects
which may result in property damage, personal injury or death.
The following are precautions, tips, and other safety considerations intended to help you become accustomed
to operating your scooter safely. While we recognize that scooter users will frequently develop skills to manage
daily activities that may diff er from those illustrated in this manual, it is imperative that all safety guidelines in
this manual be followed to ensure user safety. Failure to follow the safety notices in this and other manufacturer-
supplied manuals and those located on your scooter can lead to personal injury and/or damage to the scooter, and
may result in voiding the product warranty.
PRE-RIDE SAFETY CHECK
Get to know the feel of your scooter and its capabilities. We recommend that you perform a safety check before
each use to make sure your scooter operates smoothly and safely.
Perform the following inspections prior to using your scooter:
 Check the condition of the tires. If applicable, make sure they are properly infl ated and not damaged or
excessively worn.
 Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not corroded.
 Check all harness connections. Make sure they are secured properly.
 Check the brakes to ensure they operate properly.
 Check the battery condition meter to ensure the batteries are fully charged.
 Ensure the manual freewheel lever is in drive mode before sitting on the scooter.
WARNING! Ensure the seat is fully raised and secured in driving position prior to sitting on your
scooter. Failure to do so may result in property damage and/or personal injury.
If you discover a problem, contact your authorized Dealer for assistance. Please refer to the Contact Information
insert in your Owner's Package.
Braking Information
Scooters are equipped with two powerful brake systems—regenerative and disc park brake. Regenerative braking
uses electricity to rapidly slow the scooter to a neutral state. Disc park braking activates mechanically after
regenerative braking slows the vehicle to near stop, or when power is removed from the system for any reason.
Unless equipped with a specialty product, the speed of your scooter is controlled by a throttle control lever. When
the throttle control lever is moved from the center (neutral) position, an electronic signal is sent to the braking
system. The signal causes the electromagnetic brakes to release, allowing the vehicle to move. The more pres-
sure applied to the throttle control lever, the faster the vehicle will move up to a preset maximum speed. When
the throttle control lever is released back to the center (neutral) position, the electronic signal is reversed and the
electromagnetic brakes engage, allowing the scooter to decelerate to a stop.
