Welcome!

performance and safety.
Your safety is important to us.
Please read this Owner’s Manual carefully before using your scooter. Improper use of the scooter
could result in accident or injury to yourself and others. Correct use will extend the life of the
scooter, while enhancing your mobility and your quality of life. This manual includes instructions
for every aspect of the scooter’s operation, i.e., everything you need to know about your exciting
new Mobility Scooter.

An authorized provider or qualified technician must perform the initial setup of
this scooter, performing all of the procedures in this manual.
The symbols below are used throughout this Owner’s Manual. It is very important for you
to read them and understand them completely.
WARNING! Indicates a hazardous situation that could result in serious injury or
death if it is not avoided.
CAUTION! Indicates a hazardous situation that could result in minor or slight injury
if it is not avoided.
IMPORTANT! Indicates a hazardous situation that could result in damage to property or
the product if it is not avoided.
USEFUL TIP! Recommendations and information for ecient, trouble-free use.
Your scooter is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement device designed to increase mobility.
We provide an extensive variety of products to best fit the individual needs of the scooter
user. Please be aware that the final selection and purchasing decision regarding the type of
scooter to be used is the responsibility of the scooter user who is capable of making such
a decision and his/her health care professional (i.e., medical doctor, physical therapist, etc.)
The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility device expert
has properly fitted the scooter to the user and has assisted the prescribing health care
professional and/or the authorized provider in the instruction process for the use of the
product.
There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, when the scooter user will
need to practice operating the scooter in the presence of a trained attendant. A trained
attendant can be defined as a family member or care professional specially trained in
assisting the user in various daily living activities.
As you begin using your scooter during daily activities, you will probably encounter
situations in which you will need some practice. Simply take your time and you will soon
be in full and confident control as you maneuver through doorways, on and o elevators,
up and down ramps and over moderate terrain.
Additional general information can be found on the supplemental information sheets and
booklets included in your Owner’s Package. Please fully read and review the information,
and keep it readily available for future reference.
