Never try to mount or dismount a kerb at
an angle, always approach straight on

obstacle at
possible look for and use drop kerbs, as
these are safer and more comfortable.
Wherever possible always drive straight
up or down slopes not across them.
Failure to observe these general safety
tips could lead to your vehicle starting
unexpectedly, being uncontrollable or
tipping over.
Batteries
Before each journey always check that
the batteries are sufficiently charged.
Though your vehicles batteries are
sealed try to keep batteries upright on a
flat surface at all times, especially when
being transported.
When being transported ensure your
batteries are located securely in place to
prevent possible damage, short circuit
or injury.
Regularly check that your batteries are
not damaged, are in good condition with
clean tight terminals and that no leakage
has occurred.
Batteries naturally discharge over time;
always recharge your batteries at least
once a month to avoid damaging them.
