Intended use of the vehicle/s
The Vantage and Vantage X scooters are 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 Vantage X is a medium range 6mph scooter which is suited for travel
on public roads when this is required. The Rascal Vantage is similar to the Vantage X, however it is not suitable
for use on public roads and is limited to 4 MPH by design. 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 Vantage and Vantage X scooters have lighting to enable them to operate in the dark. Both
models of scooter are designed to operate on pavements and other hard surfaces and can mount kerbs and
other obstacles as defined in the Technical Specifications section of this manual. - high kerbs should be avoided.
Users could endanger themselves and others if they are not capable of driving their 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 Vantage and Vantage X scooters should not be used on loose, heavily rutted or slippery surfaces
such as grass.
