CENTER STAND
•Always use the center stand on level ground.
•To extend the center stand and park the scooter, grasp the left handlebar grip and the luggage rack with your right hand. Place your right foot on the foot peg of the center stand and push straight down. The rear wheel will raise slightly as the scooter comes to rest on the center stand.
•To retract the center stand, grasp both handlebar grips and push the scooter forward. NOTE: Be sure your feet and legs are clear of the center stand. The center stand has a strong spring and will retract under the scooter very quickly.

WARNING
•Maximum load for the luggage rack is 10 lbs. (4.5 kg). NEVER exceed maximum load capacity for the scooter. Combined weight of the rider, gear and any accessories must never exceed maximum load capacity of 225 lbs. (102 kg).

•Do not attach anything to the handlebars, fenders or footrests.
