IMPORTANT!
NEVER connect the
charger directly to
the battery.
This is how you charge
Start by turning off your Eloflex.
Connect the charger to the socket on
front of the handlebar. Make sure that
the contacts’ position matches each
other. Then plug the charger’s power
cable into a wall outlet. Charging is
indicated by a lamp on the charger.
Red lamp means that charging is in
progress. After about three hours, the
batteries are charged at 90 percent.
The scooter can now be used again.
After about 5-8 hours, the light on
the charger becomes green and the
batteries are fully charged. During
charging, the charger itself becomes
warm, and this is normal. For maximum
battery life, charging should take place
for about five hours when the bar on
Charging instructions
the battery indicator has dropped to
one third. The batteries will not be
damaged by maintenance charges
but for maximum battery lifespan we
recommend that you disconnect the
charger when the batteries are fully
charged.
Charging the batteries can be done
down to -10 degrees. When charging
in lower temperatures, the batteries will
not get fully charged. If your Eloflex is
used in minus degrees, the mileage is
affected. For example, at -10 degrees,
the mileage can be reduced by up to
50%.
Remote key
Your Eloflex scooter is delivered with a
remote control key. The remote control key
can be used to lock/unlock your scooter.
When the scooter is in the locked position,
it is not possible to drive it.
Your Eloflex scooter has front and rear
lighting for increased safety. To turn on the
lights, tap the light icon on the left side of
the handlebar. There are also brake lights
and turn signals. Use the turn signals
with the two arrows on the left side of the
handlebars. The brake light is activated
when the scooter is stationary, when you
release the throttle and when braking with
the brake button.

Transport and storage
• A folded scooter can be placed in the luggage of a larger car. Use ramps to get the
scooter into the car.
• A folded scooter can stand upright as in the picture to the right to take up less space.
• If the scooter is not to be used for a while, we recommend that the batteries be fully
charged before putting the scooter away.
• The scooter should be stored indoors in frost-free, dry and ventilated areas. Storage
temperature on 0-30 degrees is recommended.
• When transporting by bus or by handicap transportation, the Eloflex must be attached to
the fastening points shown in the pictures at the bottom. Note that Eloflex is not tested as
a car seat. We therefore always recommend that the user moves over to the car’s own
seats.

DRIVING
There is a risk of injury by tipping the scooter.
• Only drive in inclines that do not exceed the
maximum allowable slope.
• Always use the anti-tip device when driving your
Eloflex.
• Driving downhill should always be done at a lower
speed.
• Avoid areas where there is a risk of icy or slippery
surfaces.
• Never try to drive up or down stairs with your
scooter.
• Never drive over obstacles higher than the
recommended maximum height.
• Avoid rapid movements with the handlebar and
sudden changes in driving direction while driving.
Risk of being stuck in remote places.
• A user with greatly reduced mobility should not
drive longer distances outdoors alone.
Risk of injury if one foot slips off the footrest and falls
under the scooter while driving.
• Always place your feet in the middle of the footrest
while driving.
Risk of injury if you collide with other objects in
narrow passages.
• Drive through narrow passages with the lowest
speed and greatest attention
There is a risk that the scooter will tip over if the anti-
tip devices are removed, damaged or mounted at
position that deviates from the standard mounting.
• The anti-tip devices must always be mounted in
driving position when the scooter is used.
• The anti-tip devices only work on a solid surface.
On soft surfaces such as lawns and snow, the
anti-tip device can lose its effect. Therefore, drive
extremely carefully on soft surfaces.
Safety instructions when driving

Driving
Read
The user must read these safety and driving
instructions before using the Eloflex scooter.
Practice
• Practice makes perfect. Train to drive your Eloflex together
with an assistant by starting on an open plan surface,
preferably outdoors, before using your scooter among other
people, in stores or restaurants etc.
• Move forward by pressing the accelerator button.
• Stop by releasing the button or press the break button to
stop immediately.
Reverse
Reverse by pressing the reverse button and then drive
backwards by pushing down the accelerator. Push the
reverse button again to change back to driving mode.
Remember to always look backwards before you start
reversing to be sure that no person or thing is in the way.
Spin
Spin by moving the handlebars gently sideways.
Take care so nothing is in the way of the sides when you
spin.
Turn
Turn as you drive by gently moving the handlebars sideways
in the same direction you want to turn.
Always lower the speed when turning.
Obstacle
Practice avoiding and passing obstacles. Move the handle-
bar sideways while driving forward to avoid obstacles.
Remember to lower the speed as you approach obstacles.
Fast driving
Press the plus button to increase speed if you want to drive
fast. Remember to lower the speed as soon as you feel inse-
cure, whether you are turning or approaching an obstacle.
Run over obstacles
Drive slowly to the obstacle and make sure the front wheels
are in the direction of travel. Then press the accelerator
button while leaning backwards to drive over the obstacle.
Eloflex is tested and approved for obstacles up to a maxi-
mum of 6 cm.
Run on slope
T ry driving straight up or down for an inclined surface. Lean
slightly forward as you drive up, and backwards as you
drive down, to maintain the center of gravity. Avoid driving
sideways if possible and compensate for any side slope
by leaning in the opposite direction. Always drive slowly on
slopes. Avoid surfaces that tilt more than 9 degrees.
Elevators
Remember to check the width of the elevator door and how
quickly the door is closed before you enter the lift. Keep in
mind that you may have to reverse out of the lift if it is not
large enough to allow you to turn around.
Driving on the road
Drive primarily on sidewalks, walkways and cycle paths and,
ultimately, on busy roadways with your Eloflex.
Cross the roadway
If possible, always choose to cross the road at a pedestrian
crossing. Pay attention to intersecting cars.
Use chamfered part of the pavement if available.
Avoid curbs higher than 6 cm.
