The rear lights have to be connected before fully fitting the cover. One connector is white and one black. Take
care to fit the correct way and not trap cables when fitting cover. Locate hole in cover over seat mechanism and
tabs on front of cover into slots on footplate and push down to engage clips (Fig 6).

release the seat locking handle and check that the seat locks into the
new position. Repeat so that the seat faces forward in the normal
driving position (fig 8).
The seat height can be adjusted by removing the nuts and bolts
holding the top section of the seat pillar and moving the top section to
the required height and refitting the nuts and bolts.
6. Dismantling
For ease of loading and transportation, it may be easier in some cases to dismantle the Sonet.
1. Remove seat
2. Remove Rear Cover
3. Remove Batteries. Unplug connectors, undo Velcro straps and lift out batteries. Take care when
lifting batteries as they are heavy.
4. Refit rear cover.
5. Fold down tiller.
This is as far as the Sonet will dismantle.
Care! Warning
All components are heavy, seek help if you think you may injure yourself lifting this weight.
When transporting the Sonet, please remember the various components can be potentially dangerous should
they become dislodged in any emergency braking. Ensure they are all stowed securely and strapped to prevent
movement or flying objects.
7. Parking Brake Release
Should the Sonet need to be manoeuvred for any reason without using the motor, the parking brake can be
released. The brake release lever can be found at the rear right hand side of the Sonet. Simply pull up to
disengage the brake. To re-engage the brake, push the lever down as far as it will go. NB If the brake is
disengaged there will be no drive at all to the Sonet.
8. Safety Overload Switch
If the motor or electrical circuits become overloaded, steep slope or high kerb would be possible examples that
could cause this, the overload switch may activate. This will cause a complete electrical shutdown of the Sonet
and the parking brake will come on. It can be reset after a small time delay. It is located under the rear cover on
a flat plate at the front of the seat pillar. Leave for about 1 minute and simply push the button in. If the button
refuses to stay in, leave for a few minutes and try again. If it refuses to reset get in touch with your dealer.
Never attempt to hold the button in by any other means.
