•Wear brightly-coloured clothes.
•Do not drive too close to other vehicles or in another driver’s blind spot.
•Avoid overtaking.
4. Always follow local traffic regulations.
•Driving above the speed limit is the reason for many accidents. Driving speed must not exceed the limit specified by traffic
regulations and allowed by road conditions.
•Always signal when turning or changing lanes in order to attract the attention of the other drivers.

Vehicle modifications
Making any modifications to the scooter or replacing the original components can affect its performance and safety and/or render it
illegal for use. Observe applicable laws and all national and local regulations concerning vehicle equipment. Additionally, such

Loading
Adding accessories or cargo to your scooter can adversely affect stability and handling if the weight distribution of the scooter is
changed. Use extra care when riding a scooter with extra load. Here are some general guidelines to follow when loading cargo or
adding accessories to your scooter:
1. All accessories must be fastened securely on the vehicle in order to minimize vibration that could cause instability.
2. Any extra load should be placed as close to the gravity centre as possible and must be equally distributed on both sides of the scooter
to avoid imbalance and instability.
3. The tyre pressure must be adapted to the weight of the load and road conditions.
4. Make sure that any extra load is securely attached to the vehicle to prevent it from falling and being lost.
5. Do not hang any load on the handlebars or the suspension.
6. The total weight of the driver, passenger, accessories and cargo must not exceed the maximum load limit of the scooter (160kg).
