General Description

The Fortress 1700 DT and TA are electrically driven scooters for general use
in outdoor and indoor environments.
The height of the seat is adjustable according to the leg length of the user.
The seat can be rotated and the armrests folded back by the user for ease of
getting on or off the scooter.
The steering tiller is adjustable to enable a comfortable driving position.
When driving at higher speeds, one should be extra careful. Slow down,
especially on sidewalks and in pedestrian areas.
The following should be kept in mind when using the scooter:
A scooter is not a motorised vehicle in the traffic regulations sense. You
•
have the same rights and duties as a pedestrian.
At all times, you are responsible for keeping your scooter in perfect working
•
order, so that driving the scooter is safe.
The scooter is a technical product. Therefore, any repairs and maintenance
•
should be carried out by qualified personnel. If any work needs to be done,
you should contact your dealer.
