FOREWORD & SAFETY INTRODUCTION

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Your scooter can provide you with many years of service and
pleasure if you take responsibility for your own safety and un-
derstand the challenges that you can meet on the road. There
is much that you can do to protect yourself when you ride. You
will find many helpful recommendations throughout this
manual. Here are some very important safety tips:
Wear a helmet
Scooter safety equipment starts with a quality helmet. One of
the most serious injuries you can suffer in a crash is a head
injury. Always wear a properly approved helmet. You should
also wear suitable eye protection.
Make yourself easy to see
To make yourself more visible, wear bright, reflective clothing;
position yourself so other drivers can see you; signal before
turning or changing lanes; and use your horn when it will help
others notice you.
Know your limits
Ride within the boundaries of your own skill at all times. Know-
ing these limits and staying within them will help you avoid
accidents.
SCOOTER SAFETY
Keep your scooter in safe condition
For safe riding, it is important to inspect your scooter before
every ride and perform all recommended maintenance. Never
exceed load limits, and only use accessories that have been
approved by KYMCO for this scooter.
Inspect your scooter before riding
Do not forget to perform an entire safety inspection to ensure
your, and your passenger's safety, before each ride.
Be extra safety conscious on bad weather days
Riding on bad weather days, especially wet ones, requires ex-
tra caution. Braking distance can double on a rainy day. Stay
off of painted surfaces, manhole covers and greasy appearing
areas on the pavement, as they can be especially slippery. Use
extreme caution at railway crossings and on metal gratings and
bridges. Whenever your are in doubt about the road conditions,
slow down.
Modification
Modification of your scooter, or removal of original equipment
may render the vehicle unsafe or illegal. Obey all applicable
equipment regulations in your area.

SCOOTER SAFETY
PROTECTIVE APPAREL
For your safety, always wear an approved motorcycle or scooter
helmet, eye protection, boots, gloves, long pants, and a long-
sleeved shirt or jacket whenever you ride your scooter.
Helmets and protection
Your helmet is your most important piece of riding gear be-
cause it offers the best protection against head injuries. Your
helmet should fit your head comfortably and securely. Always
wear a face shield or goggles to protect your eyes and aid
your vision.
Additional riding gear
In addition to a helmet and eye protection, you should also use:
•Sturdy boots with nonslip soles to help protect your
feet and ankles
•Leather gloves to keep your hands warm and help pre-
vent blisters, cuts, burns and bruises
•A motorcycle or scooter riding suit or jacket that has
been designed for comfort, as well as protection. Bright
colored and reflective clothing can help make you more
noticeable in traffic. Be sure to avoid loose clothing
that can get caught on any part of your scooter.
1 Wear gloves and use both hands to grasp the handle-
bar when riding
2 Always wear a helmet and eye protection
3 Wear bright or reflective clothing. Clothes should fit
properly (not too tight or loose)
4 Footwear should be the proper size, have low heels,
and offer ankle protection
Not wearing a helmet increases your chance of serious
injury or death in a crash. Be sure you and your pas-
senger always wear an approved motorcycle helmet that
fits properly.
You should also wear eye protection and other protective
apparel when you ride.

Break-in recommendations
The first 600 miles (1,000 km) of riding are the most important
in the life of your scooter. Following proper break-in procedures
during this time will help ensure maximum life and performance
from your new scooter. Proper break-in operation allows the ma-
chined surfaces to polish each other and mate smoothly.
Your scooter’s reliability and performance depend on your
exercise of special care and restraint during the break-in pe-
riod. It is especially important that you avoid operating the
engine in a manner which could expose the engine parts to
excessive heat.
The following guidelines should be followed during the break-
in period:
Maximum throttle operation:
Initial 300 miles (600 km): ...................Less than 1/2 throttle
300 miles to 600 miles (1,000 km):.....Less than 3/4 throttle
Vary the engine speed:
The engine speed should be varied and (not held at a con-
stant rate) for long periods of time. This allows the parts to be
"loaded" with pressure, and then “unloaded”, allowing the parts
to cool. This aids in the mating process of the engine and
transmission components. Although it is essential that some
stress be placed on these components during break-in to en-
sure that this mating process occurs. Do not, however, apply
excessive load on the scooter's drive line.
Avoid constant low speed operation:
Operating the engine at constant low speed (light load) can
cause parts to glaze and not seat in properly. Allow the engine
to accelerate freely, without exceeding the recommended
throttle openings.
Avoid using full throttle during the break-in period.
The initial service:
The 200 mile (300 km) initial service is the most important
service your scooter will receive. Take extra care to observe
your scooter’s initial service in a timely fashion. During
the break-in period, all of the engine components will have
worn in, and all of the other parts will have seated in, so ad-
justments will be required. All fasteners will be tightened, and
the contaminated engine oil will be replaced.
NOTE: Completion of the 200 mile (300 km) initial service
will ensure optimum service life and performance from
your scooter. It is imperative that this service be performed
in a timely fashion.
SECTION 3 -
OPERATION
19
Break-in recommendation for new tires:
Just as it is necessary for you to follow proper break-in proce-
dures to protect your engine and ensure its maximum life, the
same holds true for your new tires. Wear-in the tread surface
by gradually increasing your cornering lean angles over the
first 100 miles (160 km). before attempting maximum lean
angles. Avoid hard acceleration, hard cornering, and hard brak-
ing for the first 100 miles (160 km).
The 200 mile (300 km) service should be performed as
outlined in the maintenance schedule section of this
owner's manual. Pay particular attention to the cautions
and warnings in the Maintenance Schedule section.
Unless you have formal training as a service techni-
cian and have access to KYMCO technical reference
materials, it is strongly suggested that you have the
initial service performed by a KYMCO dealer.
Failure to break in your tires may cause the tires to slip
and could result in your losing control of the scooter.
Use extra care when riding on new tires. Perform proper
break-in of the tires as described in this Owner’s Manual,
and avoid hard acceleration, hard cornering, and hard
braking for the first 100 miles (160 km).
OPERATION
Troubleshooting
It can be fustrating if your scooter fails to start, or stops running
during your ride. In the rare instance this occurs, take a few
moments to check the following items. This checklist covers
some of the most common, simple problems which may arise,
and which can be quickly resolved.
√√√√
√Do you have enough gasoline in the fuel tank?
√√
√√
√Did you follow the correct procedure for starting the
engine?
√√
√√
√Is the battery voltage low (you may need to kick start
your scooter)?
√√
√√
√Is the main fuse in good condition?
NOTE: Use this Owner’s Manual to check components and
perform adjustments that are within your technical ability.
If you cannot resolve the problem, do not hesitate to con-
tact your KYMCO dealer for assistance.
20
Improperly maintaining your scooter or failing to cor-
rect a problem before riding may cause a malfunction
in which you or others can be seriously hurt or killed.
Always perform a pre-ride inspection before every ride
and correct any problems.
5. Steering: Check for smooth operation in all steering posi-
tions (page 27).
6. Instruments: Make sure the speedometer, fuel level gauge
and indicator lights function (page 28).
7. Lights and horn: Check that headlight, tail/brake light, turn
signals, indicators and horn function properly (pages 28 & 29).
8. Chassis: Check for overall proper function (pages 29 & 30).
1. Engine oil level: Add engine oil if required (page 21). Check
for leaks.
2. Tires: Check condition and inflation pressure (pages 21 & 22).
3. Fuel level: Fill fuel tank when necessary (page 23). Check
for leaks.
4. Front and rear brakes: Check operation, making sure there
is proper free-play at the left lever, and that there is brake
fluid in the front brake fluid reservoir (pages 24 through
27).
Performing pre-ride inspections does not take the place
of regular maintenance. Follow the maintenance sched-
ule recommendations on pages 40 - 41 of this manual.
After one month of use or 200 miles (300 km) of riding,
which ever occurs first, contact your KYMCO dealer to
perform an initial service on your scooter.
This initial service is the most important service in
the life of your scooter, and includes checks and ad-
justments that will help ensure that your scooter
operates efficiently and safely, and attains the long-
est possible life.
OPERATION
Pre-ride inspection (PRI)
For your safety, it is very important that you establish the fol-
lowing routine before every ride: Walk around your scooter
checking each of the items set forth below. If you detect any
problem, be sure to address it immediately, or have it cor-
rected by your KYMCO dealer.
21
PRI - Tire inspection
The condition of your scooter’s tires is vital for operational ef-
ficiency and safety. Check the tires’ inflation pressure 2, the

OPERATION
1. Unscrew the dip stick 1, remove it ,and wipe it with a clean cloth.
2. Reinsert the dip stick until the threaded part of the dip stick
touches the engine case. Do not thread the dipstick into the
engine case.
3. Remove the dip stick again and inspect the oil level on the
stick. The engine oil level should be above the "L" mark but
no higher than the "F" mark. Add or remove oil as required.
Do not overfill the engine with oil. Overfilling the en-
gine can cause oil leaks and/or oil contamination of
the air filter element. Always make sure the oil level is
above the "L" mark but is no higher than the "F" mark.
PRI - Engine oil level inspection
NOTE: Park your scooter on the main stand, on level ground.
Use extreme caution when performing the oil level in-
spection or any other checks if the scooter’s engine
has been recently operated. The engine oil, engine case
and muffler can become very hot during scooter op-
eration and creates a burn hazard.

The tires on your scooter must be replaced if they:
Leak air (even at a slow rate)
Have any damage on the tread or side wall areas
Have been damaged by intrusion of a foregein object,
such as a nail
Are worn as evidenced by the wear indicators
Failure to replace a tire in poor condition will cause an
unsafe riding condition. Replace worn or damaged tires
immediately for the safety of you and your passenger.
Consult your KYMCO dealer for tire repair or replace-
ment service.

PRI - Fuel level inspection / Refilling
To open the fuel filler cap:
1. With the engine “OFF”, place the scooter on its main stand
and open the seat (see page 12 of this manual).
When the fuel level gauge needle approaches “E” (indicating
the tank is nearly empty), refill the tank with unleaded gasoline.
Do not overfill the tank. There should be no fuel in the
fuel filler neck. Excess fuel can contaminate the evapo-
rative emission canister, resulting in poor driveability.
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. You can be
burned or seriously injured while handling fuel.
* Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame away.
* Refuel only outdoors.
* Clean up fuel spills immediately.
2. Rotate the cap 1 counterclockwise to access the fuel filler 2.
3. Add fuel (per the recommendations listed here).
4. Replace the fuel filler cap 3 and secure it to the fuel filler
by rotating clockwise. Close the seat.
OPERATION
Fuel recommendation:
Use unleaded gasoline with a research octane number of
91 or higher. Unleaded gasoline will extend spark plug life.
Whenever possible, maintain the fule level at no less than
1/4 tank.

PRI - Brake system inspection
The right brake lever on your People scooter controls the front
hydraulic brake. The left brake lever controls the rear mechani-
cal drum brake. Your scooter requires the proper brake lever
free-play so the brakes will be responsive and will not drag,
causing premature wear to the brake pads. The free-play is
the measured distance between the brake lever at rest and
the point at which the brake first begins to engage. Before
riding, you should inspect the brake lever free-play, the rear
brake shoe wear, the front brake fluid level and the front brake
pad wear.
OPERATION
Rear brake system inspection:
1. The rear drum brake is equipped with a brake show wear
indicator. When the brake is applied, an arrow on the brake
arm 1 moves towards reference marks 2 on the brake hub.
If the brake arm pointer is outside of the adjustment range
markings, the brake shoes must be inspected and may
require replacement. If your scooter requires brake shoe
replacement, see your KYMCO dealer for this service.
11111 22222
2. If the arrow points to the reference marks when the rear
brake is fully applied, the shoes are worn and require re-
placement.
0.4 - 0.8 in
(10 - 20 mm)
3. Measure the free-play from the left brake lever end 3:
0.4 - 0.8 in (10 - 20 mm).
4. Use the cable adjuster on left brake lever perch for minor
free play adjustment.
33
333
25
As the brake pads wear, the brake fluid level drops as the
hydraulic system automatically compensates for the wear.
There are no adjustments to perform, but fluid level and
pad wear must be inspected periodically to make sure the
brakes will function properly.
The system must also be inspected for fluid leaks. Leaks
can cause the system to lose pressure and malfunction.
To prevent damage to the brake system, only use DOT 4
brake fluid from a sealed container. Never allow contami-
nants (dirt, water, etc.) to enter the brake fluid reservoir.
See your KYMCO dealer for this service.
5. Park the scooter on the main stand and rotate the adjusting
nut 4 on the brake arm clockwise to decrease the lever
free play. Rotate the adjusting nut counterclockwise to in-
crease the lever free play.

OPERATION
Make sure the rear wheel turns freely after free play
adjustment, so the brake will function properly and not
wear prematurely.
Front brake system inspection:
The right brake lever on your People scooter controls the fr
hydraulic brake. Check the fluid level through the inspect
window on the brake fluid master cylinder reservoir. Insp
the brake pad wear at the front brake caliper.
26
OPERATION
Brake fluid can damage paint and plastic, so handle the
brake fluid with care. When adding brake fluid, be sure
that the reservoir is horizontal before removing the cover
so you will not spill fluid onto the scooter.
1. Verify that the brake fluid level is between the “L” mark and
the “F” mark in the brake fluid reservoir window 7. See
the MAINTENANCE section of this Owner’s Manual for ad-
ditional information about the front brake fluid.
2. Visually inspect the front brake pads on your scooter for
wear. Each pad’s surface has grooves 8 that will indicate
the amount of life left in each pad. If the grooves are visible,
there is adequate brake pad material. If the grooves are no
longer visible, or their depth is severely reduced, the pads
require replacement.

OPERATION
PRI - Steering & handlebar inspection
If the steering does not move smoothly or feels ob-
structed, do not ride your scooter. See your KYMCO
dealer immediately for repairs or adjustment.
1. Apply the front brake (right lever) and press down and release
pressure on the handlebar, listening for any abnormal noise.
2. As you press down and release, also feel for any loose-
ness from the chassis transmitted to the handlebar.
3. Turn the handlebar from the center fully to the left and then
fully to the right, feeling for any loose components and lis-
tening for any abnormal sounds.
Before riding, inspect your scooter’s handlebars for damage
to make sure the steering’s side-to-side and up-and-down
movements are smooth.
As the brake pads wear, the brake fluid level drops as
the hydraulic system automatically compensates for the
wear. The brake fluid level must be inspected at the
same time you inspect the brake pads for wear.
If the wear indicator grooves in the front brake pads
are no longer visible, it is an indication that the brake
pads are worn and require replacement. Consult your
KYMCO dealer for any brake-related service.
Prolonged and repetitive use of the vehicle’s hydraulic
brakes for high speed stops will cause overheating of
the brake fluid, premature brake pad wear, and can cause
unexpected loss of braking ability.
28
OPERATION
PRI - Instrument inspection
Before you begin your ride, make sure the scooter’s instru-
ments are functioning.
1. Does the speedometer 1 needle move as the scooter
moves?
2. Does the fuel level gauge needle 2 indicate the fuel
level?
3. Do all indicator lights 3, like the turn signal and the high-
beam function?
NOTE: Contact your KYMCO dealer for repair of your
scooter’s instruments if they are not functioning properly.
1. Turn on the ignition switch to see if the headlight 4 and
the tail light 5 are illuminated. Check the lenses for dirt
or damage.
2. Squeeze each brake lever to make sure the brake lamp in
the tail light 5 illuminates.
3. Operate the turn signal switch to make sure the turn signals
6 flash. Make sure each of the four signals flash, and the
lenses are free of dirt and are not broken.

PRI - Chassis inspection
Complete the pre-ride inspection of your scooter by checking
items on its chassis.
The horn is an essential safety item, as it alerts other
traffic to your presence.
The headlight must be in good working order to illumi-
nate your riding path at night.
The tail/brake light is required so other traffic can see
your scooter and be alerted to your intention to stop or
slow down.
The turn signals indicate your turning intentions.
Because all of these systems are vital safety items, con-
tact your KYMCO dealer for replacement bulbs or elec-
trical system repair should there be any malfunctions.
4. Turn the ignition switch to “ON“ and press the horn button
7 to make sure the horn sounds.

OPERATION
The brake must be adjusted and functioning properly
so it can lock the rear wheel to keep the scooter from
advancing when the engine starts.
To prevent damage to the starter motor, do not operate
the starter motor for more than five seconds at a time. If
the scooter fails to start immediately, check the fuel level
and the battery condition, and allow the starter motor to
cool before attempting to start the engine again.
Once the scooter starts, the rear wheel may spin. To
avoid injury, keep your body and clothing away from
the rear wheel.
3. Press the starter button 2 without rotating the throttle grip.
NOTE: If the scooter’s engine is warm and does not start
immediately, rotate the throttle grip 3 3 3 3
3 to 1/8 to 1/4 open
to help the engine start.
NOTE: If the scooter has not been ridden for a long pe-
riod of time it may be hard to start. Add fresh fuel and
press the starter button several times in succession to
try to start the engine. If the scooter does not start, con-
tact your KYMCO dealer, as your scooter may need to have
