WARNING!
If the scooter starts moving more quickly than you consider safe on a downward
slope, release the accelerator control lever and bring the scooter to a stop. As soon
as you feel you have regained control of the scooter, push the accelerator control
lever and continue driving down the rest of the slope with care.
GOING DOWN A SLOPE
• Set the minimum speed;
• If it is possible to do so safely, drive forwards down any ramp, low rise or sloping surface.
The manufacturer advises against reversing on slopes, ramps, pavements and low rises.
Reversing on a sloping surface can be extremely dangerous.
However, if you do need to reverse, follow one of two procedures.
NOTE:
When one of the following procedures is used to reverse down a sloping surface, the
manufacturer strongly advises using the assistance of another person.
Procedure 1: In operation
• Turn the ignition to the "Off" position;
• Get off the scooter;
• Turn the ignition to the "On" position;
• Remain standing beside the scooter and carefully accelerate the controls at the minimum
speed;
• Slowly and carefully accompany the scooter along the sloping surface;
• Carefully get back on the scooter and return to normal functioning.
Procedure 2: Emergency (not in operation)
• Turn the ignition to the "Off" position;
• Get off the scooter;
• Set the wheel unlocking lever to "Unlocked";
• Remain standing alongside the scooter and accompany it by hand along the entire sloping
surface;
• As soon as you reach the flat surface at the bottom of the slope, position the wheel
unlocking lever in the locked position.
WARNING!
When the scooter is in unlocked wheels mode, the stopping brake is released. The
weight of the scooter could cause you to lose control on a slope. If you do not feel
able to drive the scooter on a slope, ask for assistance or do not proceed.
14.6 Engine braking system
The scooter has a system that uses the engine to assist braking. The engine braking system is
designed to function when the key is in both the "On" position and the "Off" position. When the
key is in the "On" position, the wheel lock is in the locked position and the scooter is operating,
the engine will contribute to slowing down the scooter as soon as you remove your hand from
the accelerator lever.
When the key is in the "Off" position and the wheel lock is in the unlocked position, the engine
braking system will prevent you from pushing the scooter too quickly (such as on a sloping
surface) and you will notice this as you push it. The scooter will move freely until you reach a
certain speed, then you will feel resistance, as the engine braking system has been activated.
