6.4 Safety switch
The safety switch is located under the seat. Turn to ‘on’ to power on the scooter. Turn to ‘off’ to power down.
Note that this prevents the alarm and anti-theft from functioning. The scooter should always be powered
down if not used for a long period of time, to prevent damage to the battery.

7. Pre-ride checks
7.1 Check tyre inflation (see paragraph 11.4), tread and wear and ensure no foreign objects are present.
If tyres are worn or punctured, they must be replaced immediately.
7.2 Check brake operation and levels of brake fluid (on the handlebars next to the brake levers). Make
sure that discs and pads are not worn or damaged and that the disc is not warped.
7.3 Move the steering from side to side, ensuring that the movement is smooth and not loose and that
there is an equal turn angle in both directions.
7.4 Ensure charge level is sufficient for the journey. Do not start a ride with less than 20% battery.
7.5 While the scooter is off or in parking mode, check that throttle operation is smooth.
7.6 Check operation of headlights (dipped and full beam), indicators (front and rear) and horn.
7.7 Ensure that there are no error messages showing (see section 0).
7.8 Ensure that you are wearing a helmet and appropriate riding clothing.

8. Loading
8.1 The maximum loading of a scooter is 150kg, including rider, passenger and cargo.
8.2 The scooter is certified for a maximum of 2 people and the loading above. Overloading is extremely
unsafe.
9. Battery
9.1 For the first 3 charges, ensure that the scooter is fully charged. Also, make sure that the scooter
receives a full charge at least every 2 months.
9.2 The charger will stop automatically. It is not possible to reverse the polarity. Charging for a long
time / overnight will not damage the battery or the charger. However the scooter should not be left
plugged in for more than 24 hours.
9.3 A full charge takes approximately 3-4 hours with a fast charger.
9.4 Riding with a battery less than 10% can cause the scooter to power off. This is normal under-voltage
protection for the battery. If this happens, do not ride again until the battery is charged.
9.5 The battery can deplete over time as the scooter systems consume electricity; this is normal. Always
charge the battery before use.
9.6 Mileage per charge is stated in ideal conditions; ambient temperature and weather conditions,
loading and riding style all influence range. For tips on getting the best range, contact your dealer.

16
9.7 After completing a ride, charge the scooter to ensure full battery for the next ride.
9.8 If storing the scooter, ensure that the safety switch is in the off position and that the battery is
unplugged. Preferably, remove the battery from the scooter for storage and ensure charged at least
every two months. Failure to do so will deplete the battery and may lead to it needing replacement.
Recharge the battery after storage. The ideal battery capacity for storage is around 50%.
9.9 Charging the scooter

17
1 Open the battery compartment
2 Turn the safety switch to ‘off’
3 Take out the battery pack
4 Connect the charger to the battery
5 Connect the charger to AC current

18
It is also possible to charge the scooter by plugging the charger lead into the side of the scooter while
the battery is connected internally.
9.10 The charger can become hot in use. For this reason it must be used in a dry, ventilated place
and left on a surface which is non-flammable and non-insulating. Do not leave the charger on soft
surfaces.
9.11 Never leave the scooter with a depleted battery as this can cause the battery voltage to
dip below minimum and require replacement.
9.12 Using the scooter with a depleted battery will shorten the life of the battery and can make
the battery inoperable (requiring replacement).
9.13 Do not attempt to modify or disassemble the battery, or perform any diagnostics. This is
extremely dangerous and can result in fire and explosion.
9.14 Do not charge the scooter with the ignition turned on.
9.15 The operational temperature range for the battery is -20°C to 65°C. The temperature
range for charging the battery is 0°C to 55°C. The temperature range for storage of the battery is -
20°C to 35°C, ambient humidity ≤65%RH. Using the scooter or charging or storing the battery
outside of the stated ranges will damage the battery. If the ambient temperature is outside the
stated range for operation or charging, move the scooter to a place where it will cool / warm and do
not use or charge until the scooter temperature is within the stated range.

10. Electrical safety
10.1 Only use the original charger and cables supplied with the scooter. Use of other chargers or
cables is dangerous. Replace fuses in the charger plug with the same type.
10.2 Only once the charger is connected to the scooter, plug the charger into a 13A outlet.
10.3 Do not plug the other end into the 13A outlet until the charging cable is connected to the
scooter.
10.4 The battery lights indicate the level of charge in the battery.
10.5 No adaptation should be required to domestic wiring although ensure that miniature circuit
breakers (MCBs) are fitted at the distribution box. If in doubt, ask an electrician.
10.6 The battery should be stored in a clean, dry, ventilated space. Keep the scooter and battery
outside residential buildings and away from corrosive substances, fire and heat sources.
10.7 Never charge the scooter in the wet, or in damp conditions. Never leave extension cables
outside or on the ground. Using any electrical appliance (including your scooter charger) in the
wet is extremely dangerous and can lead to serious injury or death.
10.8 If the scooter is involved in an accident, and the battery box is compromised, there is a very
small risk of fire and explosion. The battery box is located underneath the scooter seat.
