the speed control (2) knob. This means that the scooter will not be able to travel at more than 4mph. To
turn this function off, press the switch for a second time. Only featured on Vantage X model.

or electromechanical overload and is located beneath the rear
removable "boot" panel of the scooter (Fig.3). If this activates, all
power will be cut from the batteries to the scooter. This device can
