Key Switch
! Insert the key into the key switch and turn it clockwise to power up (turn on) your Travel Scooter.
! Turn the key anticlockwise to power down (turn off) your Travel Scooter.
Although the key can be left in the key switch when the Travel Scooter is powered down, we recommend remov-
ing it to prevent unauthorised use of your Travel Scooter.
WARNING! If the key is moved to the “off” position while your Travel Scooter is in motion,
the electronic brakes will engage and your Travel Scooter will come to an abrupt stop!
Throttle Control Lever
This lever allows you to control the forward speed and the reverse speed of your Travel Scooter up to the
maximum speed you preset with the speed adjustment dial.
! Place your right hand on the right handgrip and your left hand on the left handgrip.
! Use your right thumb to push the right side of the lever to disengage your Travel Scooter’s brakes and move forward.
! Release the lever and allow your Travel Scooter to come to a complete stop before pushing the other side of
the lever to move in reverse.
! When the throttle is completely released, it automatically returns to the centre “stop” position and engages your
Travel Scooter’s brakes.
Horn Button
This button activates a warning horn. The Travel Scooter must be “on” for the horn to be operational. Do not
hesitate to use the warning horn when doing so may prevent accident or injury.
