BRAKING INFORMATION
Your scooter is equipped with these powerful brake systems:
 Regenerative: Uses electricity to rapidly slow the vehicle when the throttle control lever returns to the
cener/stop position.
 Disc Park Brake: Activates mechanically after regenerative braking slows the vehicle to near stop or
when power is removed from the system for any reason.
 (Optional) Handbrake: This lever provides you with emergency stopping power. See II. "Your
Scooter."
HANDBRAKE LEVER (OPTIONAL — MODELS 613, 713, AND 714)
The handbrake lever contains hydraulic fluid. When the lever is depressed, the fluid is pushed through the
brake line to engage the brake pads against the brake discs. The handbrake lever is a completely sealed
unit, meaning that the hydraulic fluid should not leak; however, there are certain safety measures that
should be taken if the handbrake lever becomes cracked or damaged.
 Do not touch spilled material unless wearing protective equipment, such as safety goggles and gloves.
 For small spills, cover the material with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible absorbent material.
Once absorbed, enclose the material in a plastic bag and contact your local waste disposal agency for
proper disposal measures. Do not expose the material to waterways or sewers.
 If the eyes are exposed, check for and remove contact lenses. Flush eyes with cool, clean, low-
pressure water while occasionally lifting and lowering the eyelids. Seek medical attention if excessive
tearing, redness or pain persists.
 If the skin is exposed, remove all contaminated clothing. Wipe off excess material and wash exposed
skin with soap and water. Seek medical attention if skin appears damaged or if irritation persists.
Thoroughly clean contaminated clothing before reuse. Discard contaminated leather goods.
 If ingested, do not induce vomiting or give anything to drink unless directed to by a physician. Never
give anything by mouth to a person who is not fully conscious. Seek medical attention immediately.
 If inhaled, move the affected individual to fresh air. If the affected individual is not breathing,
immediately begin rescue breathing. If breathing is difficult, 100% humidified oxygen should be
administered by a qualified individual. Seek medical attention immediately and keep the affected
individual warm and at rest.
 If ignited, use dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide or water fog to extinguish.
WARNING! Do not modify the handbrake lever or attempt to replace the hydraulic fluid.
If damage occurs, follow the safety information in this section and contact your
authorized dealer for handbrake replacement. The hydraulic handbrake should only be
serviced or replaced by your authorized dealer.
WARNING! The handbrake contains hydraulic fluid that can cause mild skin, eye and
nasal/bronchial irritation. Do not attempt to adjust or service the handbrake without
proper protective equipment such as safety goggles and gloves and wash hands after
handling.
