νThe electric brake will automatically disengage and the Shuttle will accelerate smoothly to the speed preselected at the speed adjustment dial.

WHETHER YOU ARE DRIVING FORWARD OR IN REVERSE

νPull on the right handgrip to steer your Shuttle to the right.

νMove the tiller to the center position to drive straight ahead.
