Overview
Thank you for your purchase of the GIO Electric Titan Long Range
Mobility Scooter. It is an easy to operate mobility scooter designed for
indoor and outdoor use. It is street legal but doesn’t require any
licensing or insurance. (unless required locally) Inspired by motorcycle
design, the Titan is packed with features from backup claxon to
generous top speeds, long driving range, front and rear suspension,
highly adjustable seat and more! This manual contains a wide range
of general information and should be read before you operate it.
Assembly
Your Titan arrives 98% assembled and is ready in 5 simple steps.
Step 1
Unpack your Titan - Untie or snip the wires holding your Titan in its
protective frame and remove it from its packaging. Double check that
your Titan includes the following components:
Rear Basket Mirrors
Key & Fob (x2) Charger
4

Basket Hardware Storage Tray Hardware
Poncho Security Lock
Step 2
Attach the basket - First attach the top to the rest of the basket with the
provided small nuts & bolts x2 and then attach the entire basket to the
rear of the seat with the included long bolts x4.
5

Step 3
Attach the mirrors - Safely stored for shipping, twist in the mirrors into
place and tighten with a wrench.
Step 4
Reconnect the battery - Your battery ships with the battery
disconnected. Open the underseat compartment then lift and remove
the gray plastic under-seat tray. Below the tray sits your scooter’s
electronics including the battery, controller and breaker.
6

Locate the disconnected wire near the breaker switch, plug it back into
the slot on the side of the breaker and tighten the screw above it to
secure it into place.
You can now flip the breaker to the on position (your alarm should
chirp), replace the under seat tray and secure the tray into place with
the medium bolts (x4).
Step 5
Charge your battery for the first time - Your scooter does not arrive fully
charged and will need charging before it is ready to drive. See
instructions for charging on page 13.

Operating your Scooter
Turning your Scooter ON/OFF
To turn the scooter on, insert the key and turn clockwise. To turn your
scooter off, turn the key counterclockwise from the on position. The LCD
display should activate indicating the scooter is on. Your scooter can also
be turned on & off remotely with the included key fob, see further
instructions on pg 12. Once the scooter is turned on using a specific
method (keys or fob) it can ONLY be turned off with the same method.
Driving your Scooter
The Titan features a variable twist throttle on the right handlebar. (See
steering controls diagram) Gently twist the throttle grip inwards to slowly
accelerate to the desired speed. Avoid twisting too hard or too quickly as
this may result in jumps in accelerations making steering less
controllable.
To slow or stop your scooter, release the throttle and squeeze both brake
levels to apply both front and rear brakes. Always apply both brakes at
the same time, especially when traveling at higher speeds. Please note
the electric braking function of your scooter will prevent the motor from
starting if the brakes are applied.
Drive with care on wet/slippery/icy surfaces as it will increase the distance
needed to stop, allow extra room for braking in these conditions. When
driving downhill it is recommended to release the throttle and apply
brakes as needed to control the scooter’s speed.
