Brakes
There are four braking systems on the Mini Crosser:
•
Motor brake - adjusts vehicle speed also when going downhill.
•
Magnetic brake - the magnetic brake is automatic and engages
when the Mini Crosser stops. In an emergency, the Mini Crosser
can be stopped instantaneously by turning the key switch. Please
note that this will cause very sharp braking.The brake must never
be disengaged mechanically using the disengagement lever on
a slope. This function is only designed for use when pushing the
Mini Crosser on a flat road.
•
Electric safety brake - if the brake is somehow disengaged on
a slope/hill, the Mini Crosser will brake automatically when it
reaches a certain speed. There is an electric safety feature in the
control system, which works even if the battery is disconnected.
This is also the reason why the Mini Crosser cannot be towed at
more than 5 km/h. See the section about towing.
•
Hand brake - intended as an emergency brake and parking brake.
It must be operated with caution when driving in slippery condi-
tions and downhill.
When using the handbrake as a parking
brake, lock it in braking position by
pressing the button in while applying the
brake.
To release the brake, press the button
again.
