Transferring in and out

See fig. 000000012.
Before getting in or out, or
making a transfer, the
scooter should be
switched off electrically
and the neutral position
should be switched off.
Transferring in:
•
Switch off the scooter.
•
Switch off the neutral. See 'Neutral
position of the scooter.
•
Move the handle (A) on the right-hand
side of the Calypso seat upward.
This will release the seat.
•
Turn the seat 90 degrees to the left or to the right, after releasing the handle. The seat
will automatically lock itself after turning 90 degrees: the handle will click into place.
•
Now seat yourself on the seat.
•
Turn back the seat as described above.
When the seat has been turned to its original position, it will click back into place. This
way, it cannot inadvertently turn while driving.
The seat is provided with arm-rests that can be folded up, so that you can get in and
out sideways, after the arm-rest has been folded up.
After getting in or out, always check whether the arm-rests are in the proper position.
Transferring out should be done in reverse order.

Pushing the scooter

In the case of calamities, a malfunction, of if the batteries have insufficient capacity to
provide energy for the drive system, the scooter may also be pushed.
Pushing the scooter may also be useful if this is required because of the narrow space
in which the scooter has to be parked, or if it simplifies an action:
•
Switch off the scooter by pulling the ignition key from the lock.
•
Switch on the neutral. See 'Neutral position of the scooter.
