SAFETY INFORMATION

Further safe-riding points

● Make sure to signal clearly when
making turns.
1
●
Braking can be extremely difficult
on a wet road. Avoid hard braking,
2
because the scooter could slide.
Apply the brakes slowly when stop-
ping on a wet surface.
3
●
Slow down as you approach a cor-
ner or turn. Once you have com-
4
pleted a turn, accelerate slowly.
●
Be careful when passing parked
5
cars. A driver might not see you and
open a door in your path.
● Railroad crossings, streetcar rails,
6
iron plates on road construction
sites, and manhole covers become
7
extremely slippery when wet. Slow
down and cross them with caution.
8
Keep the scooter upright, otherwise
it could slide out from under you.
● The brake lining could get wet when
9
you wash the scooter. After wash-
ing the scooter, check the brakes
before riding.
EAUT2030 ● Always wear a helmet, gloves, trou-
sers (tapered around the cuff and
ankle so they do not flap), and a
bright colored jacket.
●
Do not carry too much luggage on
the scooter. An overloaded scooter
is unstable.
