ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

Environmental conditions may affect the safety and performance of your power
scooter. Water and extreme temperatures are the main elements that can cause damage
and affect performance.
A) Rain, Sleet and Snow
If exposed to water, your power scooter is susceptible to damage to electronic or
mechanical components. Water can cause electronic malfunction or promote
premature corrosion of electrical components and frame.
B) Temperature
Some of the parts of the power scooter are susceptible to change in temperature.
The controller can only operate in temperature that ranges between 18 (-8 )
and 122 (50 ).
At extreme low temperatures, the batteries may freeze, and your power scooter may
not be able to operate. In extreme high temperatures, it may operate at slower speeds
due to a safety feature of the controller that prevents damage to the motors and other
electrical components.
