Modifications
Drive Medical Product has designed your scooter
to be as practical as possible. However, under no
circumstances should you modify, add, remove,
or disable any part or function of your scooter.
Personal injury and damage to the scooter may
result.
1. Do not modify your power scooter in any way
not authorized by Drive. Do not use
accessories if they have not been tested or
approved for Drive products.
2. Get to know the feel of your power scooter
and its capabilities. Drive recommends that
you perform a safety check before each use
to make sure your scooter operates safely.
Inspections prior to using your power
scooter:
1. If equipped with pneumatic tyres, please
check for the tyres are inflated to the correct
pressure.
2. Please check all electrical connections and
make sure they are tight and not corroded.
3. Please check all harness connections and
make sure they are secured properly.
4. Please check the brakes.
Weight limitation.
1. Do not exceed the weight capacity stated in
the Specification section. Exceeding the
weight capacity voids your warranty. Drive
will not be held responsible for injuries or
property damage resulting from failure to
observe weight limitations.
2. Do not carry passengers on scooters.
Carrying passengers on scooter may affect
the centre of gravity, resulting in a tip or a fall.
Tyre inflation
1. If your scooter is equipped with pneumatic
tyres, check the tyre pressure every week.
2. The correct tyre pressure will prolong the
life of your tyres and ensure a smooth ride.
3. Do not under-inflate or over-inflate your
tyres. It is critically important that tyre
pressure is maintained between 25 – 30 psi
(2.0 – 2.4 bar).
Temperature
1. Some of the parts of the power scooter are
susceptible to change in temperature. The
controller can only operate in temperature
that ranges between -25ºC ~ 50ºC.
2. At extreme low temperatures, the batteries
may freeze, and your scooter may not be
able to operate. In extreme high
temperatures, it may operate at slower
speeds due to a safety feature of the
controller that prevents damage to the
motors and other electrical components.
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE
The rapid development of electronics, especially
in the area of communications, has saturated
our environment with electromagnetic (EM)
radio waves that are emitted by television, radio
and communication signals. These EM wave are
invisible and their strength increases as one
approaches the source. All electrical conductors
act as antennas to the EM signals and, to
varying degrees, all power wheelchairs and
scooters are susceptible to electromagnetic
interference (EMI). The interference could result
in abnormal, unintentional movement and/or
erratic control of the vehicle. Power scooters
may be susceptible to electromagnetic
interference (EMI), which is interfering
electromagnetic energy emitted from sources
such as radio stations, TV stations, amateur
radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios,
cellular phones and alarm systems. The
interference (from radio wave sources) can
cause the power scooter to release its brakes,
move by itself or move in unintended directions.
It can also permanently damage the powered
