Drive-/push mode ☞ Note: ☞ Switch the SCOOTER into the push mode only for manoeuvring on a level surface. Selecting the push mode First bring the drive key into the driv- ing key position OFF by pulling it off. ☞ The SCOOTER is now switched off.
Selecting the operation Caution: The functions and safety of the SCOOTER must be checked before the start of each journey. Before fi rst operation the batteries should be charged through the charg- ing socket (1). ☞ Therefore observe chapter < Charg- ing batteries >.
Adjusting the steering column Loosen the hand wheel (1) to adjust the steering column. Caution: Hold onto the steering column with one hand at the handle bar in order to prevent it from uninten- tionally swivelling down. – Danger of injury! Retighten the hand wheel (1) when the desired position of the steering column is reached.
☞ Note: Do not move the acceleration lever (1) during the activation phase of about one second. – The electronic is ready for opera- tion when the indicator gauge for operational readiness (4) lights up constantly. Battery charge condition The battery indicator (2) displays the battery charge condition after the switch-on.

Charging procedure To charge the batteries, fi rst switch off the SCOOTER and then plug the battery charger plug into the battery charging socket (1). Afterwards plug the mains plug of the battery charger into a corresponding outlet. The charging process is now started.
Pre-operation checks ☞ Also view chapter < Maintenance instructions >. After the SCOOTER has been switched on, the battery indicator (1) displays the battery charge condition after the system test phase has ended. Battery capacity The needle of the battery gauge moves left to the beginning of the red display when the battery capacity Depending on the type of error the...
Pre-selecting the maximum speed When switching on the SCOOTER the set speed is pre-selected. The fi nal speed is adjusted continu- ously through the turning knob (1) (also during driving). Increasing clockwise turns of the knob increase the maximum fi nal speed ac- cordingly from slow (symbol turtle) to fast (symbol rabbit).
Driving The speed is determined through movement of the accelerator lever (1) as well as the pre-selected fi nal speed. Caution: Drive especially carefully during the fi rst journeys! For this the pre-selectable speed is adjusted to the lowest level (sym- bol turtle).
Accelerator lever The driving speed is determined while driving by the movement of the accel- eration lever (1) or (2). As soon as the acceleration lever is moved the SCOOTER, depending on the adjustment maximum fi nal speed, starts driving fast or slow. ☞...
