  • Page 23: Crossing" Driving Profile

    The “PROFILE” button provides access to the “Exterior” and “Flexible exterior” driving profiles. These profiles are to be used in all situations, except when crossing one-off obstacles. The profiles allow a maximum speed of 10 km / h when the selected speed is at maximum and acceleration is programmed to be autonomous, as described in the technical characteristics.
  • Page 24: Steering Lock

    The “Crossing” profile allows you to surmount obstacles of up to 15 cm in length, moving forward at low speeds, because it is programmed for torque and instantaneous power (powerful acceleration). • It is recommended to use the “Steering lock” function when driving straight forward. (See chapter 8.3.

    7.5.2. DRIVING POSITION For normal use on flat terrain, uphill and when crossing obstacles, the seat must be positioned as parallel, and the backrest as perpendicular to the ground as possible. When going downhill, tilt the seat back 10° to the ground and the backrest 20° back from the vertical.
  • Page 28: Shock-Absorbers

    7.5.6. SHOCK-ABSORBERS The A5RR1 shocks are adjusted via two MTB type valves. The upper valve (MP) must be set between 100 and 150 PSI (never in excess of 180 PSI), this is the main pressure dampening that adjusts the sag of the shock absorber. The lower valve (NP) must be se between 65 and 100 PSI and must not exceed the main pressure, it is the secondary pressure that manages the rebound of the dampening.
  • Page 29: Tyre Pressure

    7.5.7. TYRE PRESSURE The tyre pressure must be adjusted according to the terrain. Off-road (bumpy terrain, irregularities, fields, paths, mud, sand, snow...) it is recommended to maintain a low tyre pressure (between 0.4 and 0.5 bar), this provides a greater comfort. Less inflated tires provide better traction in mud, sand and snow.
