Braking

WARNING
 Avoid braking hard or suddenly
(b)
(especially when leaning over to
one side), otherwise the scooter
may skid or overturn.
(a)
 Railroad crossings, streetcar
rails, iron plates on road con-

covers become extremely slip-
pery when wet. Therefore, slow
down when approaching such
areas and cross them with cau-

 Keep in mind that braking on a
wet road is much more difficult.
 Ride slowly down a hill, as brak-
ing downhill can be very diffi-
cult.
1. Close the throttle completely.
2. Apply both front and rear brakes
simultaneously while gradually in-
creasing the pressure.
