Usage Features

Turning on/off: Insert the key into the ignition and turn clockwise to power on. Turn counter-clockwise to power off.
Speed Control: A black twist-grip throttle controls acceleration. Twist towards you to increase speed, release to gradually reduce speed.
Battery Power Display: The current charge level is displayed when the scooter is on. Lights are off when powered off.
Horn: A green button on the left handlebar activates the horn when the scooter is on.
Headlight: The headlight can be turned on by turning the ignition one more click to the right after powering on.
Emergency Brake Tab: Located on the right-side hand brake. To activate, push the tab towards the hand brake, then squeeze the hand brake until the tab clicks inwards. Deactivate by pulling the brake handle without touching the tab.
Forward and Reverse Switch: Located on the right-hand side of the handlebars, attached to the throttle. Flip to the desired position.
Charging: The battery pack power cable and charger use the same port. The battery can be charged outside the machine if the basket and battery pack are removed. A red light on the charger indicates charging, green indicates full charge. Unplug within two hours of full charge to prevent overcharging. Charging time can be up to 8 hours for an almost empty battery.
Ramps and Curbs: Check ramp surface for roughness to prevent slipping. Do not drive across a slope or turn sharply on a slope. Ensure curb height does not exceed 4 inches. Always go forward up ramps and curbs. Avoid stopping completely over small objects or obstructions.
Safety Belt: If equipped, use the safety belt at all times when seated.
Mirrors: Adjust mirrors while stationary to see behind you and minimize blind spots.
Lights and Signals: Use headlights and turn signals to increase visibility to other vehicles and pedestrians.
Driving Outdoors: Designed for clean, even, dry surfaces. Avoid operating in inclement weather.
Public Roads: Unless specifically permitted, do not drive on public roads. Use sidewalks adjoining roads. Be aware of local traffic laws.
Alternate Surfaces: Do not drive onto stairs or escalators. Use elevators instead, inspecting their quality and condition.
Curbs: Cannot drive over abrupt, vertical curbs. Approach gradual, smooth curbs head-on, maintaining speed until rear wheels pass the curb. Avoid oblique angles to prevent tipping.
Incline Control: Can handle a range of inclines/declines. Do not use on inclines/declines that make operation difficult. Use ramps with roughened surfaces. Do not drive transversely or in reverse on inclines. Do not use on inclines/declines greater than 10 degrees.
Cornering: Reduce speed when making sharp turns. Control speed to prevent tipping.
Ingress and Egress: Ensure scooter is braked and off. Brace yourself, use upper body to assist, and move slowly onto the seat. Buckle the safety belt.

Regular Checks: Always check for normal operation, loose parts, and defects before operating. Repair any problems before use.
Cleaning: Keep the scooter clean and dry. Use a damp sponge or cloth for cleaning, and dry thoroughly. Do not use a high-pressure water sprayer or immerse components in water.
