A red lamp will light up on the charger. When the light changes to green, the battery is fully charged. The
charger can now be unplugged from the mains and then unplugged from the socket on the CARVY.
Only use the charger in a clean, ventilated, dry room and do not leave the battery connected once it is fully
charged. Never store your e-scooter while the charger is still connected. Never interfere with, open or alter
the CARVY electronics, the battery, the charger or the plug on the charger. The battery can lose capacity
much quicker in winter and in cold temperatures. Changing the battery and other CARVY parts, including
general repairs, must only be done by a special CARVY service workshop. Do not use chargers, cables or
plugs any more if they have been damaged. Never get the charger, cable or plug wet and do not touch with
wet hands. Always remove the plug by pulling on the plug, not on the cable. Batteries and electronic
equipment should not be disposed with the usual household waste. Please only use the authorized
disposal services.
Before the trip
If your CARVY is folded, please read the section, "Unfolding the steering column" on page 9.
Once the CARVY has been unfolded and charged, your CARVY is ready to ride and can be switched on
using the ON/OFF button on the power control. The CARVY is automatically set at speed level 1 when
switched ON.
If the parking brake is activated it needs to be released by moving the brake lever. Place one foot on the
deck, push the scooter (like a kick scooter) to start rolling and then press the accelerator lever down
gently using your right thumb. The CARVY will start accelerating. Once moving, place your second foot,
parallel to the other foot on the deck. Always hold the handlebars with both hands. Avoid steering too
abruptly into different directions to avoid the danger of accidents.
To reduce speed you can just reduce the pressure on the accelerator lever. To slow down please release
the accelerator and pull the brakes. Do not brake too hard, as this may cause the wheels to block.
The tire pressure should be checked every time before the CARVY is used.
Three speed levels
The CARVY is equipped with a choice of three speed and acceleration. Level 1 is usually pre-programmed
when the CARVY is switched on, allowing enough acceleration to reach a speed of 6 km/h. This is the
recommended level for beginners and for use in crowded areas to avoid collisions with pedestrians.
Once you have ridden your CARVY several times successfully and got used to how your e-scooter behaves,
you can progress on to level 2 and 3. The speed setting are chosen before starring to roll by pressing the
button of the controller. Be noted that each speed level will allow to drive faster and it offers a higher
acceleration in each higher level.
Use the available speed levels carefully to reduce the risk of skidding or falling. Be very careful with the
3
rd
speed level. When using the 3
rd
speed level You must lean forward on the scooter to maintain the right
balance and avoid that the front wheel will lift off the ground due to the stronger acceleration!
