Brake Release / Freewheel Operation

The release lever for the electro-
magnetic brake is situated under the
rear left of the scooter. Ensure that
the power is switched off.
In the event of power failure or the
need to mover the scooter without
driving, the electro-magnetic brake
can be disengaged by a pulling the
red lever upwards – this will then put
the scooter in 'freewheel' mode. To
re-engage the brakes push the lever
down fully and ensure that the brake
is engaged before entering the
scooter.
Caution! NEVER leave the scooter unattended whilst in freewheel mode as it
will roll away down an incline. 'Freewheel' mode should only be used in an
emergency to move the scooter due to power failure. NEVER move the
scooter in this mode whilst it is occupied. Your scooter will continually
bleep if it is switched on when in this mode.
