bearing purposes. Such use may cause the scooter
to tip, which may result in a fall from the scooter and
personal injury.
WARNING! Do not put all of your weight on one side
of the scooter deck. Such use may cause the
scooter to tip.
WARNING! Avoid any change of position or movement
that may change your center of gravity while sitting on
the scooter. This may cause your scooter to tip.
WARNING! A drop-off (as small as 2”/ 5cm) at the
bottom of a slope can stop a front wheel and cause the
scooter to tip forward.
WARNING! Never reach or lean if you must shift your
weight sideways or rise up off the seat.
WARNING! Never reach or lean if you must move
forward in your seat to do so. Always keep your
buttocks in contact with the backrest.

slowest speed possible. If the descent is faster than
you desire, release the throttle control lever to stop the
scooter. Then press the throttle control lever slightly to
control the speed of your descent.
WARNING! The maximum recommended incline angles
(see specifications) are tested in a controlled
environment. Your scooter’s ability to climb up inclines
is affected by your weight, speed and the angle you
approach the incline, among other factors.
WARNING! Only drive backwards on a flat surface.
When driving backwards, operate your scooter at a
lower and even speed. Stop often and check to make
sure your path is clear of obstacles. To prevent tipping,
do not travel down an incline or ramp backwards.

15
14
WARNING! Even though your scooter may be
capable of handling greater obstacles, we
recommend that you do not attempt to negotiate a
curb that has a height greater than 2”/ 5 cm.
Doing so could cause instability in your scooter.
Riding over curbs or obstacles can cause tipping
and serious bodily harm. If you have any doubt that
you can safely cross any curb or obstacle, ALWAYS
ASK FOR HELP. Be aware of your riding skills and
personal limitations. You may need to remove or
cover threshold strips between rooms and install a
ramp at the entry or exit of doors.
WARNING! If you feel unsure about a driving surface,
avoid that surface.
WARNING! Do not expose your scooter to open
flames.
WARNING! Keep your scooter in a dry and clean
condition. Never take your scooter into a shower, tub,
pool, or sauna. Rain, snow, salt, mist/spray
conditions, and icy/slippery surfaces can damage the
scooter components or cause the scooter’s frame to
prematurely rust.
WARNING! Avoid prolonged exposure to heat or cold;
it may affect the temperature of upholstered and
non-upholstered components on the scooter.
Exercise caution when using your scooter in extremely
hot or cold conditions.
WARNING! Do not tow your scooter. Towing may
exceed the maximum speed threshold, resulting in
damage to critical components of the scooter.
WARNING! Use extreme caution when it is necessary
to move an unoccupied scooter up or down stairs.
Remove the seat, batteries, and any accessories
before attempting the transfer. Use proper lifting
equipment / techniques and use only solid, non-
removable frame components to lift the scooter with
multiple physically capable attendants. Do not lift or
move your scooter or seating system by grasping or
holding onto any of its removable parts, including the
armrest(s), seat cushions, seatback, or shrouds.
WARNING! Do not try to climb an obstacle when on
an incline.
WARNING! Do not drive over an obstacle with just
one wheel.
WARNING! Do not drive on uneven terrain and/or
soft surfaces.
WARNING! Do not drive near tall grass that can
entangle the running gear.
WARNING! Avoid driving on loosely packed gravel
and/or sandy surfaces.
WARNING! Do not use your scooter on or near
railroad tracks or crossings.
WARNING! Do not ride your scooter along the
edges of streams, lakes, or the ocean. Never
use your scooter to cross waterways.

16
WARNING! When your scooter is used with any type of
lift/elevation devices, always turn off the power of the
scooter; make sure the scooter is not in “freewheel”
mode and do NOT sit on your scooter. Failure to follow
this may result in unintended movement and personal
injury or product damage.
WARNING! Never use your scooter to negotiate stairs
or escalators.
WARNING! Never sit on the scooter while it is in a
moving vehicle.
WARNING! It is dangerous to transfer to and from your
scooter on your own. It requires good
balance and agility. Be aware that there is a point
during every transfer when the seat is not below you.
WARNING! To make a safe transfer: Always turn off
the power before you transfer to or from your scooter.
If you fail to do so you may touch the throttle control
lever and cause your scooter to move when you do not
expect it. Make sure the “freewheel”motor locks are
engaged; this keeps the scooter from moving when you
transfer. Work with your health care professional to
learn how to position your body and how to support
yourself during a transfer. Have someone help you
until you are sure you do a safe transfer on your own.
Move your scooter as close as you can to the seat you
are transferring to. Transfer as far back onto the seat
surface as you can. This will reduce the risk that you
will miss the seat or fall.
WARNING! Never transport the scooter in the front seat
of a vehicle. It may shift and interfere with the driver.
WARNING! Always secure the scooter so that it cannot
roll or shift.
WARNING! Refer to the tyre pressure recommended
in your user manual to ensure best
control. Only inflate the tyres using a regulated,
low - pressure air source with an available pressure
gauge. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires.
Low pressures may result in loss of control, and high
pressures may result in the rupturing of tires. Check
your tyre pressure at least once a week!
WARNING! Should the fittings on your seating system
become loose, please call your approved service
provider.
WARNING! Replace worn or damaged upholstery
immediately to reduce the risk of fire hazard.
WARNING! Be aware that washing of upholstered
items may reduce the fabric’s resistance to
flammability.
