PRE-RIDE ADJUSTMENTS AND CHECKS
Familiarize yourself with the following checklist as some of the checks must be performed prior to getting
on your Scooter.
! Have you fully charged the batteries? See V. “Batteries and Charging.”
! Is the manual freewheel lever in the drive (down) position? See IV. “Your Scooter.” Never leave the
manual freewheel lever pulled up unless you are manually pushing your scooter.
! Are you positioned comfortably in the seat?
! Is the tiller handle at a comfortable setting and locked securely in place? See VII. “Comfort Adjustments.”
! Is the speed adjustment dial set to a slow setting?
! Does the horn work properly?
GETTING ON YOUR SCOOTER
1. Make sure that the key is removed from the key switch.
2. Stand at the side of your scooter.
3. Push forward on the seat rotation lever, rotate the seat until it faces you, then release the lever to lock
the seat securely in place.
4. Position yourself comfortably and securely in the seat.
5. Fasten the positioning belt, if so equipped.
6. Push forward on the seat rotation lever, rotate the seat until you face forward, then release the lever to

OPERATING YOUR SCOOTER
Once you have planned your route and are safely and comfortably positioned in your seat, you can begin
operating your scooter.
1. Begin by setting your desired speed with the speed adjustment dial.
NOTE: Initially you should set the speed adjustment dial to the tortoise (slowest setting). Once you
become comfortable with your scooter, you can increase your speed.
2. Fully insert the key into the key switch and turn the key clockwise.
3. Position your hands on the handgrips with a thumb resting on each side of the throttle control lever.
4. Gently push the right side of the throttle control lever with your thumb to disengage the electronic
brakes and move forward, or gently push the left side of the throttle control lever with your thumb to
disengage the electronic brakes and move rearward.
NOTE: Your scooter’s reverse speed is 60% of the speed you preset with the speed adjustment dial.
5. Pull on the left handgrip to steer left.
6. Pull on the right handgrip to steer right.
7. Move the tiller to the center position to drive straight ahead.
8. Slowly release the throttle control lever to decelerate smoothly. After you release the throttle control
lever, gently squeeze the handbrake to come to a complete stop. The electronic brakes will automatically
engage when your scooter comes to a stop.
