Main Circuit Breaker (Reset Button); Securing The Scooter - Pride Mobility COLT XL8 Owner's Manual

WARNING! When your scooter is in freewheel mode, the braking system is disengaged.
Disengage the drive motors only on a level surface.
Ensure the key is removed from the key switch.
Stand to the side of the scooter to engage or disengage freewheel mode. Never sit on
a scooter to do this.
After you have finished pushing your scooter, always return it to the drive mode to lock
the brakes.
NOTE: If the scooter is placed in freewheel mode (manual freewheel lever forward) while the key is in
the "on" position, the scooter will not run until the manual freewheel lever is pushed rearward and the
key is turned to the "off" position, then back to the "on" position.

Main Circuit Breaker (Reset Button)

When the voltage in the batteries becomes low or your scooter is heavily strained because of excessive
loads, the main circuit breaker may trip to protect the motor and electronics from damage. When the
breaker trips, the entire electrical system shuts down. See figure 8.
The reset button pops out when the breaker trips.
Allow a minute or so for the electronics to "rest."
Push in the reset button to reset the breaker.
If the breaker trips frequently, you may need to charge the batteries more often or have your authorised
Pride Dealer perform a load test on the batteries.
If the main circuit breaker trips repeatedly, see your authorised Pride Dealer for service.

SECURING THE SCOOTER

Always secure the unoccupied scooter in a forward-facing position in the vehicle. Attach the four tie-down
straps to the designated securement points. See figures 9 and 9A. Tighten the straps to sufficiently remove
all slack. Never attach tie-downs to adjustable, moving or removable parts of the scooter such as armrests,
shrouds and wheels. These items should be removed. Position the anchor points for the rear tie-down straps
directly behind the rear securement points on the scooter. The front tie-down straps should anchor to floor
points that are spaced wider than the scooter to provide increased lateral stability.
WARNING! Ensure inoccupied scooters are properly secured to the motor vehicle during
transport. Scooters that are not properly secured can become a hazard to the user and
to other vehicle passengers in the event of a crash, sudden stopping or swerving, as the
scooter could tip or slide out of place.
