CHECKS
Make sure to keep the controller clean while protecting it from rain or water. Never hose off
your power scooter or place it in direct contact with water.
Keep wheels free from lint, hair, sand and carpet fibers.
Visually inspect the tire tread. If less than 1mm(1/32"), please have your tyres replaced by
your local dealer.
All upholstery can be washed with warm water and mild soap. Occasionally check the seat
and back for sagging, cuts and tears. Replace if necessary. Do not store your scooter in
damp or humid conditions as this will lead to mildew and rapid deterioration of the
upholstery parts.
All moving mechanism will benefit from simple lubrication and inspection. Lubricate using
petroleum jelly or light oil. Do not use too much oil, otherwise small drips could stain and
damage carpets and furnishings etc. Always perform a general inspection of the tightness
of all nuts and bolts.
RHINO controller: Your scooter is fitted with a Rhino controller, which continuously monitors
the operating conditions of your scooter. If it detects a problem it will indicate with error
message by flashing light on the power ON/ OFF light. You must count the number of the
flash, and see the list to check what kind of error has happened according to the number)

cause this fault. Turn the scooter power off and then
back on again.
