WARNING
Don't operate your scooter for the first time without completely reading and understanding
this user manual.
1.
Don't operate scooter on public streets and roadways. Be aware that it may be difficult
for traffic to see you when you are seated on the scooter. Obey all local pedestrian
traffic rules. Wait until your path is clear of traffic, and then proceed with extreme
cautions.
2.
To prevent injury to yourself or others, always ensure that the power is switched off
when getting on or off of the scooter.
3.
Always check that the drive wheels are engaged (drive mode) before driving. Do not
switch off the power when the scooter is still moving forward. This will bring the chair
to an extremely abrupt stop.
4.
Do not use this product or any available optional equipment without first completely
reading and understanding these instructions. If you are unable to understand the
warnings, cautions or instructions, contact a healthcare professional, the dealers or
technical supports before attempting to use this equipment, otherwise, injury or
damage may occur.
5.
There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the scooter user
will need to practice operating the scooter in the presence of a trained attendant. A
trained attendant can be defined as a family member or care professional especially
trained in assisting a scooter user in various daily living activities. Consult with your
physician if you are taking any medication that may affect your ability to operate your
scooter safely.
6.
Do not attempt to lift or move a power scooter by any of its removable parts including
the armrests, seats or shrouds. Personal injury and damage to the power chair may
result.

Never try to use your scooter beyond its limitations as described in this manual.

17. Don't attempt to have your scooter proceed backward down any step, curb or other
obstacle. This may cause the scooter to fall or tip.

sharply. Don't corner sharply when driving scooters at higher speeds.
