Safety warning and user guidance

Batteries

Tyres

Always check the batteries are sufficiently charged before setting off.

Always ensure that your batteries are in good condition and that no leakage has occurred.

Beware, battery fluids are corrosive and care should be taken at all times to avoid contact with it. If it comes into contact with the skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If it comes into contact with the eye, immediately flood the eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes and seek medical attention.

Keep batteries upright at all times, especially when transporting your Scoota.

Always follow the procedures for battery charging set out in Pages 17 - 20.

Always charge your batteries in a room with good ventilation.

Do not charge your batteries in outdoor conditions.

Do not expose any part of your charger, battery or Scoota to direct heat (i.e. Gas fires or naked flame).

Do not inflate your Scoota tyres using a powered airline.

Each tyre pressure should be upto 172 Kilopascals (25 P.S.I.).

Emergency Braking

Removal of the ignition key whilst moving will switch off the power causing immediate and full braking. This method of stopping is not recommended except in an emergency.

Caution!

Routine use of emergency braking will cause damage to your Scoota.

Freewheel mechanism

Caution!

Transporting the Scoota along a slope in freewheel mode can be dangerous. Take extra care if this is necessary. Always re-enage the freewheel device after use.

Never sit on your Scoota whilst in freewheel since the Scoota will no longer automatically stop.
