2Legal
The Scooterpac Ignite Grande is designed to be operated by a single person, in accordance with the legal requirements for
operating a Class 3 invalid carriage in the jurisdiction in which it was sold. Operating the vehicle outside of these limitations
may invalidate your warranty.

Scooterpac Ignite Grande | User Manual 8
3Saf ety
The Ignite Grande should only be operated by a single person, who is not suffering from any condition which impairs
vision, hearing, eyesight or the ability to react to sudden changes in surroundings. If you suffer from any of the above, it is
recommended that you seek advice from your doctor before operating the Ignite.
•Only drive over obstacles and up kerbs at the lowest point and at right angles.
•Sudden turns or sudden changes in speed are not recommended.
•Avoid steep surfaces if there is a risk of skidding due to icy or wet surfaces.
•Avoid going over loose surfaces such as gravel.
•Always tackle gradients straight i.e. do not drive in zigzags.
•Do not turn the Ignite around on inclined surfaces.
•Do not drive the Ignite down steps.
•Always drive forwards down gradients, kerbs and other obstacles.
3.1 Anti-Tip Wheels
The Ignite Grande is fitted with rear anti-tip wheels. These are an emergency failsafe that should never be relied upon in
normal operation. These are designed to stop the Ignite Grande tipping backwards on a steep incline. Should you see any
damage to the wheels, you should cease using the scooter and take it to a certified mechanic who can ensure that the
chassis has not been damaged.

Scooterpac Ignite Grande | User Manual 9
3.2 Safe Inclines
The Ignite Grande can climb inclines of up to 12˚ without danger. On this 12˚ incline, the Ignite Grande can stop, brake and
turn. It is possible to attempt steeper inclines, but we strongly suggest that you do not. To reduce the possibility of tipping
backwards on inclines, lessen the load on the back of the scooter by sliding the seat forward as much as possible and
leaning forward.

5.1 Intended Use
The Ignite Grande is designed for use on smooth pavement or roadway, in accordance with local laws. The Ignite can be
used in wet and windy weather, but discretion should be used when planning a journey in adverse weather conditions. If
there is more than 1cm of water standing on the pavement, extra care should be taken as the scooter may have reduced
ability to grip and steer. Under no circumstances should more than one person operate the vehicle at one time.

Scooterpac Ignite Grande | User Manual 12
5.2 Unintentional Movement
Before entering, the Ignite Grande should always be stationary. When the Ignite Grande is switched on, it will remain
stationary until one of the following:
1. The forward or reverse lever is pulled.
2. The freewheel function is engaged.
Do not attempt to operate from outside the vehicle.
If the vehicle is moving an emergency stop can be performed by releasing the throttle levers and firmly pulling the hand-
operated brake lever on the right-hand side of the tiller.

7.2 Seat Adjustments
It is important to adjust the seat into a good position that allows you to
comfortably operate all the vehicle controls.
Forward/Backwards
To move the seat forwards or backwards, grasp the black lever on the
right-hand side underneath the seat whilst sitting down.
Push firmly against the floor with your feet or pull on the handles
mounted to the doors.
TOP TIP – Do not use the control tiller to push or pull yourself up.
Backrest Adjustment
The pitch of the seat can be changed by the lifting lever located on the right-
hand side of the seat when seated.

To change the angle of the seat, sit on the seat, pull the swivel handle
towards the front of the scooter and turn the seat anti-clockwise.

Scooterpac Ignite Grande | User Manual 17
7.3 Tiller Adjustments
The angle of the tiller can be adjusted by pressing the lever down on
the front of the tiller.
The entire tiller assembly can then pitch forwards and backwards to
find a comfortable driving position. Release the lever to secure your
preferred position.
Be aware that lowering the tiller too far may make it difficult to steer.
Try to find a position that allows a good view of the digital control
panel and allows full left and right movement of the steering.

7.4 Steering
The Ignite Grande is fitted with a mechanical steering column that ideally should be operated with both hands. When the
Ignite is stationary the steering may feel a little heavy or stiff. Steering will become lighter whilst the vehicle is in motion.
For the most accurate steering the Ignite Grande should be moving forwards or backwards at a controllable speed. Gently
push one side of the tiller away from you, allowing the Ignite to begin turning. Make sure that you are continually
observing your surroundings during any manoeuvre.

7.5 Acceleration & B raking
7.5.1 Speed Controls
The Ignite Grande has several methods for controlling speed; the High and Low Speed Modes, the Max Speed Limiter and
the Throttle Levers.
7.5.1.1 High and Low Speed Modes
The high (“H”) and low (“L”) speed modes are controlled by the right-hand dial on the tiller.
The two settings place the scooter in either a 4mph or 8mph mode. These modes
correspond to the “pavement” and “road” speeds that are determined by the UK
government. “H” setting is 8mph and for road use only. “L” setting is for 4mph and for
pavement use only.
When using the pavement in the UK, the 4mph mode should be engaged to prevent the
Ignite from moving too fast. On the road the 8mph setting should be engaged.
7.5.1.2 Max Speed Limiter
The left-hand dial controls the speed at which you would like the scooter to travel or
matching your speed to someone walking. This function is particularly useful when
operating the scooter in tight areas.
Turn the dial clockwise to go faster and counterclockwise to move slowly.

Scooterpac Ignite Grande | User Manual 20
7.5.1.3 Throttle Levers
Acceleration and deceleration are controlled by the red and green levers on the tiller. They are designed to prevent both
the forward and reverse functions from being activated at the same time.
To move forward, gently squeeze the green lever. The Ignite will accelerate up to the maximum allowable speed set by the
speed controls. To slow down or stop, release the accelerator and the scooter will stop. In an emergency the handbrake
can be applied by pulling the brake handle located on the right of the handlebars.
Reverse mode can be activated by pulling the red lever when the scooter is stationary. For more information on reverse
mode please see 7.6.3 Reversing.
7.5.2 Freewheel Function
You may need to move the Ignite without engaging the motor. This can be achieved by pressing and holding the
“Freewheel” button. The scooter must be switched on, with keys in the ignition and power to the main display.
Press and hold the button marked with this symbol:
Release the button to re-engage the brakes:
For your own safety, only operate this function when on a flat surface. When in freewheel mode care must be taken to
manoeuvre the scooter safely as there is no brake function.
TOP TIP – The mobility scooter will continue to roll if pushed.
