Operating your Scoota
Braking | Emergency Braking |
To stop the Scoota simply release the
(a)Automatic regenerative braking, which slows the Scoota to a standstill and
(b)Automatic braking which will operate a short while after releasing the control lever and holds the Scoota in position, even if you are on a hill.
This is not instantaneous and will engage in approx. 1/2 a wheel turn.
In the unlikely event of an unwanted movement of the Scoota, using the ESBS handbrake or switching off at the key will bring the Scoota to a stop.
The Emergency Secondary Braking System (ESBS) is operated by using the handbrake on the tiller (Fig. 12) which will slow the scoota to a controlled stop.
Though very effective, emergency braking is extremely abrupt and must never be used in normal use.
Switching off
The Scoota must always be switched off at the key.
Note: When the Scoota is not in use for a long period of time always disconnect the batteries unless they are being charged.
