ter Technical data on page 35.
ADJUSTMENT
Always have adaptation and adjustment
work carried out by a specialist dealer.
The scooter offers manifold adjustment possi-
bilities to individual vital statistics. Before first
use an adaptation of the Scooter and a prac-
tical instruction in the functionalities of your
Scooter should be carried out by your specialist
dealer. The adaptation will take into account
the driving experience, the physical limits
of the user and the main place of use of the
scooter. Before first use, check the functionality
of your Scooter.
Should your specialist dealer carry out a re-
vision/reconditioning or make fundamental
changes to your vehicle, without the use of
original spare parts, this under certain condi-
tions may result in a remarketing of your scoot-
er. This will further entail that your specialist

7
dealer might need to conduct new conformity
assessments and tests.
☞We recommend a regular control if the
scooter adjustment in order to ensure a
long-term optimal provision even with
changing illness/handicap patterns of the
user. Especially for children and juveniles
an adjustment every 6 months is recom-
mendable.
☞We recommend regular medical exams in
order to ensure safety for active participa-
tion in traffic.
COMBINATION WITH MAN-
UFACTURER FOREIGN

ance/release.
REINSTALLMENT
The scooter is suited for reinstallment. With the
building block system the Scooter can be fit to
accommodate different handicaps body sizes.
Before reinstallment the scooter is to undergo
a complete inspection.
☞Hygienical measures required for reinstall-
ment are to be carried out according to a
validated hygienic plan and must include
disinfection.
The service manual, intended for the special-
ist dealer provides information to the rein-
stallment and reinstallment frequency of your
Scooter.
LIFE SPAN
We expect an average life span of about 5 years
for this Scooter, as far as the Scooter is applied
for its designated purpose and all maintenance
and service guidelines. The life span of your
Scooter depends upon the frequency of use,
the application environment and care. The im-
plementation of spare parts can prolong the
life span of the Scooter. As a rule spare parts
are available up to 5 years after production is
discontinued.
☞The indicated lifespan does not constitute
additional guarantee.

the selectable maximum final speed accord-
ingly from slow (turtle symbol) to fast (rabbit
symbol).
Select a low maximum speed for driving situ-
ations in which you do not feel confident/safe
(e.g. driving in confined spaces, or similar).
☞The final speed is to be preselected in de-
pendence on the personal impression of
the respective driving situation!
☞When driving on ramps, hills or slopes the
speed is to be adjusted to the inclination
appropriately. Never exceed the permitted
max speed. – Danger of accidents!
