Tips For Scooter Users - TGA Minimo Autofold Operating Instructions And Owner's Handbook

TIPS FOR SCOOTER USERS

• Your Minimo is designated as a 'Class 2' scooter, which is essentially a 4mph pavement
scooter and can only legally be used on the road when either crossing over or because
there are no footpaths.
• Class 2 scooters must not be driven on dual carriageways, motorways, bus lanes or cycle
tracks.
Insurance
There is no legal requirement for insurance, but it is a very good idea to have cover for fire
and theft, accidental and malicious damage and third-party damages. For more information
call TGA.
Breakdown & Recovery Service
Again, not a requirement but a very good idea to enable you have total peace of mind when
going out on your scooter.
Mobile Phone
An essential item if you are out there alone. You never know, breakdown, accident, health -
communication is a must.
Carrying Loads
Do not overload. It may make your scooter unstable and reduce its range. Place heavy loads
inboard – in the middle – not behind the back wheel which can lighten the steering or can
cause the front end to lift off the road on a bump, and not at the front which might make steering
heavy. See maximum weight capacity in the specifications.
Airline Checking
11.5Ah lithium batteries are permitted on aeroplanes. Airline personnel may insist on removing
the battery cover to verify its contents. It is important to check with the airline before travelling.
An airline compliance certificate is available from TGA. Due to circumstances out of TGA's
control, it is not possible to board an aeroplane with a lithium battery exceeding 11.5Ah. This
is due to an instruction/information provided by the Civil Aviation Authority. The Minimo
Autofold folding scooter comes complete with a 11.5Ah battery and therefore can be
transported on aeroplanes.
Warranty
Conditions of warranty will be detailed on the documentation supplied at the time of ordering /
supplied with your new scooter. Consumable components such as tyres, light bulbs, fuses,
brake pads, seat cushions and motor brushes, are excluded from warranty.
