• Do not drive over or off obstacles more than 1 inch (2.5 cm) high. This could be unsafe and could damage your Amigo. • Do not turn your Amigo at high speeds, as this could result in tipping.
Handle controls include: HI/LO Speed Adjusting Knob, Key Extension/Key Switch and Battery Indicator Light. The Key Extension/Key Switch, located on the right side of the Handle Control Cover, will turn the power of the Amigo ON or OFF. Turning it OFF will prevent drainage of batteries and unauthorized use. The speed may be adjusted by turning the HI/LO Speed Adjusting Knob.
Adjust the Speed Adjusting Knob to minimum. (Turn counterclockwise). • Press the Forward Accelerator Lever or the Reverse Accelerator Lever to move the Amigo. To move forward, pull the right side of the Accelerator Lever toward you (Figure 3). You can also move forward by pushing the left side of the Accelerator Lever away from you.
Rear Drive models with a TouchTron Handle. The Battery Status Gauge will be lit whenever the Key is in the ON position. However, if the Amigo is inactive for more than 25 minutes, the Amigo automatically switches to “Sleep Mode.” This feature substantially reduces power to conserve battery capacity.
Approach an unfamiliar door slowly. Does it have a knob or push bar? Does it open toward or away? Think in terms of using the power of the Amigo to do the work for you. Hold the doorknob or bar in one hand and apply the power with the other hand.

If your Amigo has a Power Seat Lift, we suggest placing a cut out tennis ball or something similar over the Seat Post to protect it.
Amigos have an overcharge protection feature so that the batteries can be charged anytime the Amigo is not being used. It is a popular misconception that batteries should be deeply discharged before recharging. This is not the proper procedure for all batteries. They can actually be damaged if they are discharged too deeply before recharging.
Gauge is lit and blinking, along with a low, chirping of the Horn, at one-minute intervals. The batteries are fully charged when the tallest bar on the far right is blinking. Your Amigo can be charged with the Key in the ON or OFF position.

Battery Storage All the Amigo Rear Drive models use a battery system that allows the batteries to be removed after they have been disconnected from the platform battery connections. Each battery has a wire assembly with a two-position connector that slides into the connector mounted to the platform.
If you remove your batteries from your Amigo, put them on a surface that cannot be damaged by acid fumes. Whenever a battery is charged and discharged through a cycle, it breathes. The breathing of the battery emits acid fumes into the cloth strap (used to lift the batteries on Rear Drive models) and may mark surfaces it rests on for long periods of time.
Lighting The Amigo is equipped with a Headlight, and with optional Taillight and Turn Signals. To replace the Headlight bulb, twist the gray rubber part of the Light Assembly counterclockwise and remove. Bulbs come straight out (do not twist bulbs) of fixture and should be replaced in reverse order.
