Caddy
11
• It is dangerous to use the Caddy on loose gravel or sand or on
a very bumpy surface. Because of the sudden weight shifts the
stability of the scooter can be easily compromised.
• In order to be able to push the scooter in case of a malfunction
or low batteries the automatic parking brake can be dislodged.
Dislodging the parking brake will put the vehicle in potentially
unsafe state, for instance when you are at the top of a slope.
When you are on the scooter at the top of an incline or slope
always make sure the parking brake is active. Dislodging the
parking brake may cause the vehicle to roll down a slope or
incline uncontrolled.
• Always reduce speed in turns and going around curves.
Making a sharp turn at full speed may cause the vehicle to turn
over.
1.3.2 Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
• Most electric devices and machines create electromagnetic
fields. These electromagnetic fields can influence the operation
of other devices or machines causing them to malfunction or
behave in an abnormal way. Machines and devices producing
very strong electromagnetic fields are mobile phones and other
radio transmitters such as 27MC transceivers and portable
transceivers (walkie talkies). All scooters are to a certain
degree sensitive to EM fields. Because they are vehicles there
are rules and standards these scooters have to comply to in
order to be admitted for use. The vehicles have to be submitted
to a series of tests to establish the sensitivity (immunity) to and
emission of EM fields. The Caddy complies with all European
standards for EMC.
• It is possible that a certain device or machine produces an
electromagnetic field stronger than the immunity level
(sensitivity) of the scooter, in such a case the scooter may
malfunction or may not respond to the control input in a normal
way. Examples are: taking off suddenly, operation of the
parking brake without you touching the throttle lever or
intermittent driving (shocks). When this happens, immediately
