BRAKES & STOPPING
Coming to a stop in your scooter can simply be done by releasing the throttle. The
throttle will automatically return to the center position, and the scooter will come to a
stop.
ATTENTION Quickly moving the throttle in the opposite direction of
travel will cause the scooter to come to an abrupt stop, and if held
continuously in the opposite direction may cause erratic movements if
you are unfamiliar with the controls.
Your scooter is equipped with two types of brake systems:
Regenerative brakes when the throttle is returned to the center position, or
stop neutral position, regenerative brakes use electricity to quickly decelerate
the vehicle.
Park brakes once the scooter comes to a complete stop the park brake
activates automatically locking the drive wheels.
OUTDOOR OPERATION & INCLEMENT WEATHER PRECAUTIONS
While your scooter is purposed for in-home use to assist you in daily living activities;
Drive Medical understands there are times you need to operate the scooter outdoors,
and has designed it to perform superbly on level outdoor surfaces.
ATTENTION When operating outdoors avoid uneven terrain, soft
surfaces, tall grass, loose gravel, loose sand, fresh water, salt water, edges
of streams, lakes or oceans. If you are unsure about a surface, avoid it.
Exposure to inclement weather should always be avoided. If you find yourself caught
in inclement weather while operating your scooter, proceed to the closest shelter
immediately. Completely dry your scooter before operating, charging, or storing.
