Intended use of the vehicle
The Rascal Ventura scooter is designed for use by adults with a disability (up to the maximum recommended
weight - see Technical Specification Sheet) who require a robust, comfortable scooter that is ideal for shopping
and other visits. The Rascal Ventura is a medium to long range 8mph scooter which is suited for travel on
public roads when this is required. When driven on pavements and other pedestrian areas, your scooter
should be set on the low preset speed setting (max 4 mph - see controls section of this manual). The Rascal
Ventura scooter has lighting to enable it to operate in the dark. The Ventura scooter is intended for use on
pavements, roads and other hard surfaces. The Ventura can mount kerbs and obstacles up to the height
specified in the Technical Specification Sheet and, with careful driving, can tackle moderately difficult terrain,
but high kerbs should be avoided.
Users could endanger themselves and others if they are not capable of driving this scooter safely. Dealers will
advise on the most suitable vehicle from the Electric Mobility range, but it is the user's responsibility to ensure
that they have the manual dexterity to drive the vehicle, adequate sight and hearing to perceive danger in time,
and can at all times operate the scooter safely in the expected conditions. If in doubt we suggest you consult
a healthcare professional and your nearest dealer for advice on the most suitable scooter for your particular
condition. Users should also regularly assess their ability to operate their vehicle safely.
The Rascal Ventura scooter should not be used on slippery surfaces such as grass.
