to allow manual operation (i.e. the scooter can be

 

pushed at a walking pace).

 

The freewheel is selected by pushing FORWARD the lever that is located on the left hand side of the scooter rear panel. Once freewheel has been selected, the electronic drive control system is disabled to prevent driving. This is a safety feature to prevent you driving the scooter with the parking brake disengaged (Photo 9.1).

To turn off the freewheel and engage the motor, simply push the lever BACKWARDS (Photo 9.2).

WARNING:

Use extreme caution in the freewheel mode especially on slopes/inclines. Letting go of your scooter whilst it is in freewheel, can cause the scooter to roll unexpectedly.

ALWAYS re-engage the freewheel device after use, failure to do so may result in injury.
