Riding Precautions
Break-in Period
During the first 60 miles (100 km) of running,
follow these guidelines to ensure your scooter's
future reliability and performance.
Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid
●
acceleration.
Avoid hard braking.

Brakes
Observe the following guidelines:
Avoid excessively hard braking.
●
Sudden braking can reduce the scooter's
u
stability.
Where possible, reduce speed before
u
turning; otherwise you risk sliding out.
10
Exercise caution on low traction surfaces.
●
The tires slip more easily on such
u
surfaces and braking distances are
longer.
Avoid continuous braking.
●
Repeated braking, such as when
u
descending long, steep slopes can
seriously overheat the brakes, reducing
their effectiveness.
For full braking effectiveness, operate both
●
the front and rear brakes together.

Combined Braking System (CBS)
Your scooter's rear brake system is linked to the
front brake. This means that operating the rear
brake lever applies the rear brake and a portion
of the front brake.
Operating the front brake lever applies only the
front brake.
For full braking effectiveness, operate both the
front and rear brakes together.
