Important Safety Information
Attention! Please read this manual in full before operating your new TravelScoot for the first time.
The TravelScoot is designed for persons who have walking difficulties but who are otherwise fairly mobile. Make sure that the
TravelScoot is right for you. Persons who are confined to a wheelchair and/or require constant personal care should NOT use the
TravelScoot.
Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will help you become accustomed to operating the
TravelScoot safely.
General Safety
•Investigate and complywith all local laws regarding personal mobility scooter use.
•As with bicycles, it is strongly recommended that you wear a helmet.
•Please note that the TravelScoot does not come equipped with anti-tipping wheels or other similar devices.
•This product is not a toy or a recreational vehicle.
•Always ensure that the power button is turned OFF and the parking brakes are engaged before getting on or off the seat
for any reason.
•To prevent misuse, remove the battery when the scooter is unattended. The battery can drain if left plugged in for
prolonged periods of time.
•Do not tow anything by the backrest.
•Do not operate at night unless adequate front and rear lights are attached.
•Avoid prolonged exposure to rain, snow, ice, salt, or standing water, whenever possible.
•Maintain and store in a clean and dry condition.
•Be aware that loose-fitting clothing can become caught in the drive tires.
•The TravelScoot should only be ridden on fairly hard-packed surfaces.
•Use your common sense. Reckless driving can result in an accident.
Take your time and soon you will be in full controlas you confidently maneuver throughdoorways, on and offelevators, and up and
down ramps.
Slopes
The center of gravity (C.G.) on an incline, such as ramps, is shifted toward the rear. Tipping over backwards is possible, but can be
easily avoided. To avoid such accidents, do the following:
•Always shift your upper body toward the handlebars in order to move your C.G. forward.
•Always twist the throttle slowly, even on level ground! The motor has high torque. Quickly twisting the throttle, causing
excessive acceleration, could tip you over backwards in extreme cases.
•Always be prepared to apply your brakes when ridingdownhill. Do not allow your scooter to go faster than you could walk
down the hill.
•Avoid starting on an incline from a full stop. Approach a ramp with reasonable speed and utilize the vehicle’s momentum.
•Approach an incline only if you are sure that you will reach the top without having to stop. If you are forced to stop along
the way, restart by shifting your upper body forward, and accelerating gently.
•When approaching an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle up the face of the incline. Drive your scooter straight up.
This will greatly reduce the possibility of tipping or falling.
•Never travel up or down a potentially hazardous incline (e.g., areas covered with ice, snow, cut grass, wet leaves, gravel,
etc.) Do not drive in mud unless unavoidable. Exercise caution when riding on snow.
•When driving down a ramp, release the throttle and keep both hands ready to apply the brakes to ensure a safe, controlled
descent.
•If you drive your scooter down a longer slope, continuously apply the brakes. Under nocircumstances allow it to gain more
than walking speed or you may not be able to stop quickly enough.
•Speed bumps, lowered curbs, and other slightly uneven conditions are generally no problem, but they should be taken
head on at a reduced speed. Never approach them at an angle, and observe the same precautions as on inclines. Keep in
mind that the small wheels cannot roll over objects much higher than 1 inch. Lower objects should be approached with
