GENERAL
MANDATORY! Do not operate your new Travel Scooter for the first time without
completely reading and understanding this owner's manual and the Consumer Safety
Guide.
Your Travel Scooter is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement device designed to increase mobility. We
provide an extensive variety of products to best fit the individual needs of the Travel Scooter user. Please
be aware that the final selection and purchasing decision regarding the type of Travel Scooter to be used
is the responsibility of the Travel Scooter user who is capable of making such a decision and his/her
healthcare professional (i.e., medical doctor, physical therapist, etc.).
The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility device expert has properly fitted
the Travel Scooter to the user and has assisted the prescribing healthcare professional and/or the authorized
Provider in the instruction process for the use of the product.
There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the Travel Scooter user will need
to practice operating the Travel Scooter in the presence of a trained attendant. A trained attendant can be
defined as a family member or care professional specially trained in assisting a Travel Scooter user in
various daily living activities.
As you begin using your Travel Scooter during daily activities, you will probably encounter situations in
which you will need some practice. Simply take your time and you will soon be in full and confident
control as you maneuver through doorways, on and off elevators, up and down ramps, and over moderate
terrain.
Additional general information can be found on the supplemental information sheets and booklets
included in your Owner's Package. Please fully read and review the information, and keep it readily
available for future reference.
Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will help you become accustomed
to operating the Travel Scooter safely.
PRE-RIDE SAFETY CHECK
Get to know the feel of your Travel Scooter and its capabilities. We recommend that you perform a safety
check before each use to make sure your Travel Scooter operates smoothly and safely.
Perform the following inspections prior to using your Travel Scooter:
Check the condition of the tires. Make sure they are not damaged or excessively worn.
Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not corroded.
Check all harness connections. Make sure they are secured properly.
Check the brakes to ensure they operate properly.
Check the battery condition meter to ensure the batteries are fully charged.
Ensure the manual freewheel lever is in drive mode before sitting on the Travel Scooter.
