The CareCo QS4 MS01096 scooter could get stuck when folding up or down due to the following reasons:
1. Battery power is low – Recharge the battery. 2. Battery pack not fully inserted – Ensure the battery pack is fully inserted. 3. Hooks under the seat not fully locked or released – During unfolding, continue pressing the switch until both hooks are locked into place. During manual folding, release the hooks by unwinding the plastic knob at the rear of the seat.
Ensure fingers, people, and pets are clear of moving parts before folding or unfolding.
