SAFETY
DRIVING YOUR BUZZAROUND LITE™ ON AN INCLINE
•For maximum stability, lean forward on your seat while proceeding up ramps, slopes, curbs, or any low rise.
•Drive with caution when attempting to negotiate any incline, even handicap access ramps.
•Always climb or descend a gradient by driving straight up or straight down the face of the slope.
•Do not traverse or drive across the face of a gradient.
•Do not attempt to negotiate an incline that is covered with snow, ice, cut or wet grass, leaves, or any other potentially hazardous material.
•Do not back down an incline.
•Try to keep your Buzzaround Lite moving when climbing an incline. If you do come to a stop, restart and accelerate slowly and carefully.
•Do not try to descend or climb a slope whose gradient is greater than recommended. See “Specifications” section.

WARNING: IF, WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING DOWN A SLOPE, YOUR SCOOTER STARTS TO MOVE FASTER THAN YOU FEEL IS SAFE, RELEASE THE THUMB LEVER AND ALLOW YOUR BUZZAROUND LITE TO COME TO A STOP. WHEN YOU FEEL THAT YOU AGAIN HAVE CONTROL OF YOUR SCOOTER, PUSH THE THUMB LEVER FORWARD AND CONTINUE SAFELY DOWN THE REMAINDER OF THE SLOPE.
DRIVING DOWN AN INCLINE
•Always drive forward down any ramp, low rise, or incline.
Never drive your scooter in reverse down any incline, ramp, curb, or low rise. Backing down any slope may create a very hazardous situation.
