All of the drive controls for the scooter are to be found on the Tiller Control Box (Photo 5).

The Pre-set Speed Knob

Turning this knob to the left, reduces your available maximum speed. Turning it to the right, increases the available maximum speed.

The Battery Gauge

This gives an approximation of battery charge.

The gauge is marked from “E” empty, to “F” full. For extra clarity there is a coloured graduated scale ranging from RED, (E) through YELLOW to GREEN, (F).

As the scooter moves over differing terrain, the Battery Gauge will dip up and down, this is normal. For a more accurate indication, stop the scooter and note the reading.

GREEN indicates ready for use.

YELLOW indicates batteries to be charged as soon as possible.

RED indicates charge batteries imediately.

TIP:

If you find that your battery gauge has gone into the red whilst you are out and about, you can increase the remaining range of your scooter by reducing your maximum available speed, but you MUST charge your scooter as soon as you can.
