WARNNING：
As a manufacturer of power scooters, KARMA endeavors to supply a wide variety of power
scooters to meet the many needs of the user. However, the responsibility of final selection of the
type of power scooter to be used by an individual rests solely with the user and his/her healthcare
professional capable of making such a selection.
KARMA recommends that power scooter users NOT be transported in vehicles of any kind while
in a power scooter.
As of this date, the Department of Transportation has not approved any tie-down systems for
transportation of a user while on a power scooter in a moving vehicle of any type. It is the
position of Karma that users of power scooters should be transferred into appropriate seating in
vehicles for transportation and make use of the restraints made available by the auto industry.
Karma cannot and does not recommend any power scooter transportation systems.
It is the responsibility of the Durable Medical Equipment (DME) Dealer, therapists and other
healthcare professionals to determine if a seat-positioning strap is required to ensure the safe
operation of this equipment by the user. Serious injury can occur in the event of a fall from a
power scooter.
Operating Information
◎ Performance adjustments should ONLY be made by professionals of the healthcare
field or persons fully conversant with this process and the driver's capabilities.
Incorrect settings could cause injury to the driver or bystanders and damage to the
power scooter and surrounding property.

ii
◎ To determine and establish your particular safety limits, practice bending, reaching,
mounting and dismounting activities in several combinations in the presence of a
qualified healthcare professional BEFORE attempting active use of the power scooter.
◎ For individuals with balance problems, practice mounting and dismounting activities
WITH AN ASSISTANT in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional. If so
equipped,
◎ DO NOT operate the wheelchair without anti-tippers being installed. Anti-tippers MUST
BE attached at all times.
◎ DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to move forward in the seat or pick them
up from the floor by reaching down between your knees as this may cause loss of
balance.
◎ DO NOT lean over the back of the chair to reach objects behind you as this may cause
the scooter to tip over.
◎ DO NOT shift your weight or sitting position toward the direction you are reaching as
the scooter may tip over.
◎ DO NOT use an escalator to move a scooter between floors. Serious bodily injury may
occur.
◎ DO NOT operate in car lanes on roads, streets, highways, etc.
◎ DO NOT attempt to move up or down an incline with a water, ice or oil film.
◎ DO NOT attempt to ride over curbs or obstacles. Doing so may cause your scooter to
turn over and cause bodily harm and/or damage to the scooter.
◎ DO NOT make sharp turns, in forward or reverse, at excessive speeds.
◎ DO NOT attempt to lift the scooter by its casings and seat.
◎ DO NOT attempt to lift the scooter by any detachable parts. Lifting by means of any
detachable parts of a scooter may result in injury to the user or damage to the scooter.
Please hold onto the frame when lifting your wheelchair.
◎ DO NOT operate the scooter until you have checked that the surroundings are clear
and that the area is safe for travel.
◎ Please pay attention to the environment, and to keep away from the hazard of external
flame. When the user is smoking, pay attention to safety and make sure to extinguish
the fire when finished. Be alert to the environment when someone nearby is smoking
or using a cigarette lighter, keep away from the hazard and use fire-proof cloth.
◎ DO NOT use parts, accessories or adapters other than those authorized by Karma.
Before attempting to sit in or exit the power scooter, REMOVE the key from the ignition.
This will ensure that the POWER is OFF and the power scooter will not drive. Remove
the key from the ignition while the scooter is not in use. Otherwise, injury and/or
damage to the scooter and surrounding property may occur.
◎ DO NOT connect any medical device (i.e., a ventilator, life support machine, et cetera)
to the battery. This could cause unexpected failure of the device and the power
scooter.

iii
◎ KARMA specifically disclaims responsibility to all personal injury and property damage
that may occur during use which does not comply with applicable federal, state and
local laws and ordinances.
◎ DO NOT stand on the front or rear casing of the power scooter.
◎ Only use freewheel mode on flat surfaces since your electromagnetic brakes are not
engaged in this mode, without these brakes it will roll down a hill causing injury or
damage.
◎ Never drive under the influence of alcohol or medication.
◎ DO NOT sit in the powered scooter within a moving vehicle unless it has been affixed
with the labels of hook mark. The labels of hook mark means that the powered scooter
fulfils the performance requirements for a “Crash Test ” of ISO 7176-19 and is suitable
to use as a seat in vehicles that have been adapted for this purpose.
RAMPS
◎ DO NOT climb, go up or down ramps or traverse slopes greater than the safe climbing
angle for your model specified in section 10.
◎ When negotiating ramps, if the variable speed lever is released while moving forward,
the power scooter will roll backwards approximately one foot before the brake
engages. If the variable speed lever is released while in reverse, the power scooter
will roll backwards approximately two and a half feet before the brake engages.
◎ Be sure to reduce your speed when driving on curved roads or making a turn; do not
drive at full speed. Please drive at a slower speed so you have complete control of the
scooter.
ELECTRICAL
◎ Check to ensure that all electrical connections are secure at all times.
◎ Grounding Instructions: DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut or remove the round
grounding prong from any plug. Some devices are equipped with three-prong
(grounding) plugs for protection against possible shock hazards. Where a two-prong
wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the
customer to contact a qualified electrician and have the two-prong receptacle replaced
with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle/outlet in accordance with the
WARNNING：
◎ As of this date, the KS-8 series have NOT been tested for safety in collisions
according to ISO 7176-19. Therefore, the KS-8 series cannot be used as seats in any
vehicles. This is KARMA recommends that users are NOT transported in any vehicle
while seated in the scooter. In the case of accident or a sudden stop, the user could
be thrown from the scooter and get injured. The suggested solution is to transfer the
user from the scooter into a normal seat of the vehicle and to securely stow the
scooter in a separate compartment.

iv
National Electrical Code and local laws. Do not use a n extension cord when charging
your batteries. A risk of fire and /or electric shock could be encountered.
BATTERIES
◎ The warranty and performance specifications contained in this manual are based on
the use of deep cycle sealed lead acid batteries. KARMA strongly recommends their
use as the power source for this unit. (Refer to chapter 6)
◎ Carefully read the battery and charger information prior to installing, servicing or
operating your scooter.
RAIN TEST
◎ KARMA has tested its power scooter in accordance with ISO 7176 Part 9 Rain Test.
This test provides the end user or his/her attendant sufficient time to remove his/her
power scooter from a rainstorm and retain operation.
◎ DO NOT leave your power scooter in a rain storm of any kind.
◎ DO NOT use your power scooter in a shower or leave it in a damp bathroom while
taking a shower.
◎ DO NOT leave your power scooter in a damp area for any length of time. Direct
exposure to rain or dampness could cause the power scooter to malfunction
electrically and mechanically and may cause the power scooter to prematurely rust.
WEIGHT LIMITATION
◎ The maximum weight that can be carried, including goods, is stated beside "Max.
Capacity" in section 10.SPECIFICATIONS.
STAIRWAYS
◎ DO NOT attempt to move an occupiedpower scooter
between floors using a stairway. (See Figure 1)

2.3 Labeling
Please carefully read all the labeling on the scooter before driving it. Do not remove them. Protect
them for future reference.
WARNNING
Do not operate the scooter unless the steering column is locked into position. Do not lean against
or pull forward on the handlebars while mounting or dismounting the scooter. Serious harm or
injury may occur.
WARNNING
Radio waves can influence the operation of motor driven vehicles.
Radio wave sources: broadcasting/TV stations and personal wireless telecommunication
equipment that transmits waves can affect the normal operation of the vehicle. Therefore, follow
the items below to lower the chance of abnormal vehicle operating conditions or brake system
failure, which may lead to injury.
Do not use personal telecommunication devices (for example, mobile phones or
walkie-talkies) when the power source of the electric powered vehicle has been
turned on.
Try to avoid locations that broadcast radio waves, such as TV stations or radio
stations.
If the electric vehicle acts abnormally or the brake system fails, turn off the power
source as soon as safely possible.
Remember that the installation of non-genuine KARMA parts makes it difficult to
predict what effects radio waves will have on the vehicle. (Note: it is not possible

6
to make a direct calculation how radio waves will influence the vehicle).
If the vehicle moves abnormally or the brake system fails after turning on the
power source under normal operating conditions, notify the manufacturer
immediately.
3. EMI/RFI
This section provides the user with basic information about the problems with EMI, known
sources of EMI and protective measures either to reduce the possibility of exposure or to
minimize the degree of exposure. This section also shows some conditions in which unexpected
or erratic scooter movements may occur.
CAUTION
It is very important that you read this information regarding the possible effects of
electromagnetic interference on your electric KARMA Scooter.
Electromagnetic Interference From Radio Wave Sources
Powered vehicles may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI), which is interfering
electromagnetic energy (EM) emitted from sources such as radio stations, TV stations, amateur
radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios, and cellular phones. The interference (from radio
wave sources) can cause the powered vehicle to release its brakes, move by itself, or move in
unintended directions. It can also permanently damage the powered vehicle's control system. The
intensity of the interfering EM energy can be measured in volts per meter (V/m). Each powered
vehicle can resist EMI up to a certain intensity. This amount of resistance is called its immunity
level. The higher the immunity level, the greater the protection. At this time, current technology
is capable of achieving at least a 20 V/m immunity level, which would provide useful protection
from the more common sources of radiated EMI. This powered vehicle model, with no further
modification, has an immunity level of 20 V/m without any accessories.
There are a number of sources of relatively intense electromagnetic fields in our everyday
environment. Some of these sources are obvious and easy to avoid. Others are not apparent and
exposure could be unavoidable. However, we believe that by following the warnings listed below,
your risk to EMI can be greatly minimized.
The sources of radiated EMI can be broadly classified into three types:
1. Hand-held portable transceivers (transmitter-receivers) with the antenna
mounted directly on the transmitting unit, such as citizens band (CB) radios,
walkie-talkies, security and fire or police transceivers, cellular telephones and
other personal communication devices;
NOTE:
Some cellular telephones or similar devices transmit signals while they are ON, even
though they are not in use.

7
2. Medium-range mobile transceivers used in police cars, fire trucks, ambulances
and taxis usually having the antenna mounted on the outside of the vehicle; and
3. Long-range transmitters and transceivers, such as commercial broadcast
transmitters (radio and TV broadcast antenna towers) and amateur (HAM) radios.
Powered Vehicle Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Because EM energy rapidly becomes more intense as one moves closer to the transmitting
antenna (source), the EM fields from hand-held radio wave sources (transceivers) are of special
concern. It is possible to unintentionally bring high levels of EM energy too close to the powered
vehicle's control system while using these devices. This can affect your powered vehicle's
movement and braking. Therefore, the warnings listed below are recommended to prevent
possible interference with the control system of the powered vehicle.
Warnings
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from sources such as radio and TV stations, amateur radio
(HAM) transmitters, two-way radios and cellular phones can affect powered vehicles and
motorized scooters. Following the warnings listed below should reduce the chance of unintended
brake release or powered vehicle movement which could result in serious injury.
Do not operate hand-held transceivers-receivers such as citizens band (CB) radios
or turn ON personal communication devices such as cellular phones, while the
powered vehicle is turned ON.
Be aware of nearby transmitters, such as radio or TV stations, and try to stay away
from them.
If unintended movement or brake release occurs, turn the powered vehicle OFF as
soon as it is safe.
Be aware that adding accessories/components or modifying the powered vehicle
may make it more susceptible to EMI. There is no easy way to evaluate their
effect on the overall immunity of the powered vehicle.
Report all incidents of unintended movement or brake release to your powered
vehicle dealer or KARMA, and note whether there was a source of EMI nearby.
Important Information
20 Volts per meter (V/m) is a generally achievable and useful immunity level against
EMI (the higher the level, the greater the protection).
This product has an immunity level of 20 V/m without any accessories connected to
it.
NOTE:
Other types of hand-held devices (cordless phones, laptop computers, AM/FM radios, TV sets,
CD players, cassette players, and small appliances such as electric shavers and hair dryers, et
cetera) so far as we know, are not likely to cause EMI problems.
