Safety Information General Warnings Warning ! The operation of scooters can endanger the life of the driver or third parties. Any driver should always be fully capable of operating this vehicle safely. Warning ! Sitting for long periods may increase the chance of thromboses or pressure sores. Users prone to such conditions are advised to take medical advice.
Warning ! Leaning Over. Do not lean sideways as this could cause the scooter to topple. Warning ! Escalators. Never drive this scooter onto an escalator as this could cause toppling and severe injury. Warning ! Roads. The 600 series scooters are not for use on roads, apart from crossing roads at designated places. Warning ! This vehicle is not suitable for use as a seat for an occupant when in a motor vehicle.
Horn: Press the button on the bottom left hand or bottom right side and the horn will sound. Release and the horn will cease. Indicators: Even when the ignition key switch is off, the indicator left or right can be selected using the rocker switch above the key switch.
Brakes There are 2 braking systems. The first works with the accelerator. When the accelerator is released the scooter will automatically brake and bring the scooter to a stop. When the scooter stops the primary brake will engage. This will stop the vehicle rolling forward or backward. When you start the handbrake will automatically disengage. If the battery should go flat the brakes automatically engage.
Tiller Head Adjustment The tiller head angle adjustment allows the handlebar/dashboard assembly to be rotated to provide a comfortable riding position. To adjust the tiller head lift to an upright position. By adjusting the screw below the tiller head the angle of the tiller head can be changed.
Seat Post Height Adjustment The seat height can be adjusted as follows: 1. Remove the seat by pulling the seat swivel lever and lifting the seat off the seat post. 2. Unscrew the nut and bolt and remove from the tube. Try and avoid touching the top of the post as it has serrations which could cut your hand.
Driving the Vehicle Warning! Read this before driving the vehicle! Whether or not this is your first mobility vehicle, please read these guidelines as all vehicles differ. Failure to do this may cause damage to yourself, a third party or the vehicle. Before you set out, do check the weather forecast.
Driving the vehicle - hazards Warning! Before driving the scooter you should be aware that, under certain circumstances it could become unstable and tip over. As a Class B Scooter, the maximum safe slope it can negotiate in any direction is defined in the technical specification. Your scooter has been designed to operate on paved, even surfaces and should not be used on rough terrain.
Transporting your Scooter Warning! Dismantling the scooter involves lifting and handling heavy parts. Weights are given in the Technical Specification; consider if you need help in handling parts before you try to lift them. The 600T and F models can be transported in vans or estate cars using ramps. By lowering the tiller and removing the seat the height can be reduced to make entry into the boot of most large estate cars possible.
Battery Charging Warning! When charging batteries NEVER smoke, or do this in a place where there are naked flames such as gas-fired heaters as, under exceptional circumstances, batteries may give off gases which could ignite and explode. Warning! When charging batteries NEVER connect or disconnect the charger while it is still connected to the mains.

Frequently Asked Questions I want to transport my vehicle in a car. There are various techniques to loading the vehicle into an estate car. It depends on what type of vehicle you own. Make sure your dealer has demonstrated the easiest way of doing this. Can I fit weatherproofing such as a canopy ? Yes, but remember if you alter the vehicle in any way it will void your guarantee.
