General Safety Guidelines
Your scooter is a state-of-the-art, life-enhancement product designed to increase mobility. We provide
an extensive variety of products to best fit the individual needs of the scooter user. Please be aware that
the final selection and purchasing decision regarding the type of scooter to be used is the responsibility
of the scooter user, who is capable of making such a decision.
WARNING! Do not operate your scooter for the first time without completely reading and
understanding all information provided with your scooter, including but not limited to safety
labeling, owner’s manuals, and supplemental instructional booklets.
The following are precautions, tips, and other safety considerations intended to help you become
accustomed to operating your scooter safely. While we recognize that scooter users will frequently
develop skills to manage daily activities that may differ from those illustrated in this guide, it is imperative
that all safety guidelines in this manual be followed to ensure user safety. Failure to follow the safety
notices in this and other manufacturer-supplied manuals and those located on your scooter can lead to
personal injury and/or damage to the scooter, and may result in voiding the product warranty.
Modifications
We have designed and engineered your scooter to provide maximum mobility and utility. A wide range
of accessories is available from your authorized dealer to further customize your scooter to better suit
your needs and/or preferences. However, under no circumstances should you modify, add, remove, or
disable any feature, part, or function of your scooter.
WARNING! Do not modify your scooter in any way not authorized by your dealer. Do not use
accessories if they have not been tested or approved for scooter. Approved accessories must be
installed by your authorized dealer or a qualified service technician.
WARNING! The addition of accessories to the scooter may change the overall weight, size, and/or
center of gravity of your scooter. It is important to take note of these changes to avoid damage to
the scooter and surrounding property.
The center of gravity of your seating system was factory set to a position that meets the needs of the
demographic majority of users. It is the responsibility of your authorized dealer to evaluate your seating
system and make any necessary adjustments to suit your specific requirements to prevent the scooter
from tipping forward, rearward, or to the side.
WARNING! Do not change your seating configuration without first contacting your authorized
dealer. Only your authorized dealer or a trained service technician should make adjustments to
the seating system.
WARNING! Do not use seating systems on your scooter that have not been tested or approved for
your scooter. Using unapproved seating systems could affect the center of gravity of your scooter,
resulting in a tip or a fall.
Controllers are factory set to a program that meets the needs of the demographic majority of users. The
controller program can affect speed, acceleration, deceleration, dynamic stability, and braking. It is the
responsibility of your authorized dealer to evaluate your specific requirements and make any necessary
adjustments to the controller program.

a black border. It is used to indicate a potentially hazardous condition/situation that could result
in personal injury, component damage, or malfunction. Follow all recommended mandatory and
prohibited actions to avoid or prevent potentially hazardous conditions/situations.
WARNING! If the controller is programmed incorrectly or outside of the safe limits, it can create
a dangerous situation. Only the scooter manufacturer, an authorized representative of the
manufacturer, or a trained service technician should program the controller.
WARNING! Make sure the controller settings on your scooter are evaluated by your authorized
dealer every six to twelve months to reduce the risk of collision or tip-over. Contact your authorized
dealer immediately if you notice any change in your ability to control the throttle control lever, hold
your upper body erect, or avoid collisions.
WARNING! If your scooter is equipped with a power elevating seat, altering drive inhibits in anyway
may result in personal injury, product damage, and/or death.
You should not modify the electrical system in any way not authorized by the scooter manufacturer.
WARNING! Do not connect any aftermarket or auxiliary products to the scooter electrical system
or use the scooter batteries to power any aftermarket or auxiliary products unless you are using an
adapter that has been tested and approved by the scooter manufacturer. Do not cut or splice any
original equipment wires, cables, or harnesses for the purpose of adding aftermarket or auxiliary
products to the scooter as this may result in damage to the electrical system and batteries.
WARNING! Do not pull on electrical harnesses directly to detach them from the scooter. Always
grasp the connector itself when disconnecting the harness to prevent wire damage.
WARNING! Ensure that the onboard or off-board charger power cord connectors are clean and dry
before plugging the connectors into either the off-board charger socket or the electrical socket.
Service the charger power cord regularly. Failure to do so may result in damage to the electrical
system and/or personal injury.
WARNING! In the event of a loss of power to the scooter, transfer to a safe position, seeking
assistance if needed. Contact your authorized dealer immediately to report the incident.
Weight Limitations
Your scooter is rated for a maximum weight capacity. Please refer to the product specifications table
for this limit. Keep in mind that the maximum weight capacity includes the combined weight of the user
and any accessories mounted to the scooter. Stay within the specified weight capacity of your scooter.
Exceeding the weight capacity voids your warranty. We will not be held responsible for injuries and/or
property damage resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.
WARNING! We recommend that you do not use the scooter as a seat during weight training
activities or as a weight training apparatus. Such use can lead to undue stress and fatigue on
scooter components, and can also affect center of gravity, resulting in a tip or a fall. We will not be
held responsible for injuries and/or property damage resulting from use of the scooter in weight
training activities or as a weight training apparatus.
WARNING! Do not carry passengers on your scooter. Carrying passengers on your scooter may
affect the center of gravity, resulting in a tip or a fall. We will not be held responsible for injuries
and/or property damage caused by carrying passengers on the scooter.
WARNING! Do not use the scooter to haul, move, or tow other vehicles, including lawn mowers, ATV
equipment, or other mobility products. Your scooter was not designed with such use in mind and
any damage or injury incurred from such use is not the responsibility of the scooter manufacturer.
Your scooter may be used to tow ONLY when equipped with a manufacturer-suppled towing hitch.
WARNING! Do not exceed the maximum weight rating when towing any object. Verify that the total
weight of the object being towed, including the load, does not exceed the maximum hitch weight.
Failure to heed may result in personal injury and/or property damage.

in personal injury, component damage, or malfunction. Follow all recommended mandatory and
prohibited actions to avoid or prevent potentially hazardous conditions/situations.
Figure 1. Weight Limitations
Tire Inflation
If your scooter is equipped with pneumatic tires, you should check or have the air pressure checked regularly.
Proper inflation pressures will prolong the life of your tires and help ensure the smooth operation of your
scooter. Always maintain the recommended psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on pneumatic tires.
NOTICE: If the tires on your scooter list the psi rating only, use the following conversion formulas
to find the bar or kPa rating: bar = psi x 0.06895; kPa = psi x 6.89476.
WARNING! It is important that the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on pneumatic tires be
maintained in the tires at all times. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires. Low pressure may
result in loss of control, and overinflated tires may burst. Failure to maintain the recommended
psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating in pneumatic tires at all times may result in tire and/or wheel failure.
WARNING! Do not use a high pressure hose to inflate the scooter drive tires. Inflate the tires from
a regulated, low pressure air source with an available pressure gauge. Inflating your tires from a
high pressure or unregulated air source could overinflate them, resulting in a burst tire.
Incline Information
More and more buildings have ramps with specified degrees of inclination, designed for easy and safe
access. Some ramps may have turning switchbacks (180-degree turns) that require you to have good
cornering skills on your scooter.
■Proceed with extreme caution as you approach the downgrade of a ramp or other incline.
■Take wide swings with your scooter’s front wheels around any tight corners. If you do that, the
scooter’s rear wheels will follow a wide arc, not cut the corner short, and not bump into or get hung
up on any railing corners.
■When driving down a ramp, keep the scooter’s speed adjustment set to the slowest speed setting to
ensure a safely controlled descent.
■Avoid sudden stops and starts.
WARNING! Stopping distances on inclines and declines can be significantly greater than level
ground. Always set your scooter to the slowest speed setting and proceed slowly. Doing so greatly
reduces the possibly of an uncontrolled ascent/decent, personal injury and/or product damage.
WARNING! Do not exceed the maximum recommended incline angle for your scooter. Refer to the
owner’s manual and the product specifications for more information.
WARNING! Do not exceed the recommended weight capacity for any ramp. When using a ramp, the
weight of the occupied scooter should be evenly distributed on the ramp.
WARNING! Ramp surfaces may become slippery when wet. Exercise extreme caution when using a
ramp during inclement weather conditions. Failure to heed this warning can result in personal injury
and/or property damage.

Geographic Location Minimum Safe Slope Requirement
USA (Americans with Disabilities Act–ADA) ADA requires 5° (8.7%)
Europe (CE mark) Class A 3° (5.2%)
Europe (CE mark) Class B 6° (10.5%)
Europe (CE mark) Class C 10° (17.6%)
Figure 2. Maximum Allowable Incline Angle (Ascending and Descending)
When climbing an incline, try to keep your scooter moving. If you must stop, start up again slowly and
then accelerate cautiously. When driving down an incline, set your scooter to the slowest speed setting
and drive in the forward direction only. If your scooter starts to move down the incline faster than you
anticipated or desired, allow it to come to a complete stop by releasing the throttle control lever. Then,
apply light pressure to the throttle control lever to ensure a safely controlled descent.
WARNING! When on any sort of an incline or decline, never place the scooter in freewheel mode,
especially while seated on it or standing next to it.
WARNING! When climbing an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle up the face of the incline.
Drive your scooter straight up the incline. This greatly reduces the possibility of a tip or a fall.
Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating an incline.
WARNING! You should not travel up or down potentially hazardous inclines, including but not
limited to areas covered with snow, ice, cut grass, or wet leaves.
WARNING! Never travel down an incline or ramp backward. Doing so may cause the scooter to tip.
Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating an incline.
WARNING! If your scooter is equipped with a reclining seatback, do not attempt to negotiate
inclines with the seat in a reclined position. Do not attempt to negotiate obstacles with the seat
in a reclined position unless an attendant is present to help stabilize the scooter. Failure to heed
these precautions may result in the scooter tipping over.
Handicap public-access ramps are not subject to government regulation in all countries, and therefore
do not necessarily share the same standard degree of slope. Other inclines may be natural or, if man-
made, not designed specifically for scooters. Your scooter’s ability to travel up inclines is affected by
your weight, travel speed, angle of approach to the incline, and your scooter setup, including seat
configuration. Therefore, we recommend that the maximum slope of an incline you attempt to safely
ascend or descend on your scooter does not exceed the maximum allowable incline listed in the product
specifications. Refer to the table below for standard degree of slope guidelines that are available for
regions as noted. See figure 2.
WARNING! Your scooter has been tested in accordance with certain standards. You should not
exceed the performance specifications of your scooter as noted in the product specifications.
WARNING! Any attempt to climb or descend a slope steeper than that specifically listed in your
scooter product specifications may put your scooter in an unstable position and cause it to tip.

HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
The hazard identification surround shape is represented as a black symbol on a yellow triangle with
a black border. It is used to indicate a potentially hazardous condition/situation that could result
in personal injury, component damage, or malfunction. Follow all recommended mandatory and
prohibited actions to avoid or prevent potentially hazardous conditions/situations.
WARNING! Never carry any item weighing more than 15 lbs. (6.8 kg). Never fill the front or rear
basket with contents exceeding 15 lbs. (6.8 kg). Doing so could affect the center of gravity of the
scooter, resulting in a tip over.
WARNING! The distance required to bring your power chair to a complete stop on a decline is
significantly greater than on level ground. Always allow enough distance for your power chair to
come to a complete stop when on an incline or decline. Failure to heed may result in an uncontrolled
stop which may cause personal injury and/or property damage.
WARNING! When loading or unloading an unoccupied power chair for transport, do not exceed
the Maximum Rated Slope that is listed on the product specification and on the data plate that is
affixed to the power chair frame. Failure to heed may cause the power chair to become unstable
and tip over, resulting in product damage or personal injury.
When you approach an incline, it is best to lean forward. This shifts the center of gravity of you and your
scooter toward the front of the scooter for improved stability. See figures 3 and 4.
Figure 3. Normal Driving Position Figure 4. Increased Stability Driving Position
Freewheel Mode
Our scooters are equipped with a manual freewheel lever system to allow for manual maneuverability
by the user or a trained attendant. When the scooter is in freewheel mode, the braking system is
disengaged. The scooter should always be returned to drive mode to lock the brakes before leaving the
scooter occupant unattended or returning control of the scooter back to the user.
WARNING! Do not place the scooter in freewheel mode while on an incline or decline. This could
cause the scooter to roll uncontrollably on its own.
WARNING! Do not use your scooter in freewheel mode without an attendant present.
WARNING! Do not place the scooter in freewheel mode while the unit is powered up. Always turn
the scooter power off and remove the key from the key switch before engaging or disengaging
freewheel mode.
An added feature built into the scooter is “push-too-fast” protection which safeguards the scooter
against gaining excessive speed while in freewheel mode.
“Push-too-fast” operates differently depending on which of two conditions exists:
■If the key is switched “off” while in freewheel mode, the scooter’s controller activates regenerative
braking when the scooter is pushed faster than a maximum threshold which has been preprogrammed.
In this case, the controller is acting as a speed governor.
■If the key is switched “on” while in freewheel mode, you will encounter considerable resistance at any
speed. This prevents the scooter from gaining unwanted momentum should the manual freewheel
lever inadvertently be released while driving the scooter.

HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
The hazard identification surround shape is represented as a black symbol on a yellow triangle with
a black border. It is used to indicate a potentially hazardous condition/situation that could result
in personal injury, component damage, or malfunction. Follow all recommended mandatory and
prohibited actions to avoid or prevent potentially hazardous conditions/situations.
Figure 5. Freewheel Mode
Braking Information
Scooters are equipped with two powerful brake systems—regenerative and disc park brake. Regenerative
braking uses electricity to rapidly slow the scooter to a neutral state. Disc park braking activates
mechanically after regenerative braking slows the vehicle to near stop, or when power is removed from
the system for any reason.
Unless equipped with a specialty device, the speed of your scooter is controlled by a throttle control
lever. When the throttle control lever is moved from the center (neutral) position, an electronic signal
is sent to the braking system. The signal causes the electromagnetic brakes to release, allowing the
vehicle to move. The more pressure applied to the throttle control lever, the faster the vehicle will move
up to a preset maximum speed. When the throttle control lever is released back to the center (neutral)
position, the electronic signal is reversed and the electromagnetic brakes engage, allowing the scooter
to decelerate to a stop.
NOTICE: If the throttle control lever is released to the center (neutral) position when negotiating
an incline, the scooter may “roll back” approximately 1 foot (30.5 cm) before the brake engages.
This is caused by a momentary delay when the electronic signal to the brakes is reversed. If the
throttle control lever is released while negotiating an incline in reverse, the scooter may “roll
back” approximately 3 feet (1 meter) before the brake engages.
WARNING! We strongly recommend that you not tow a scooter equipped with “push-too-fast”
protection. Towing the scooter may exceed the maximum speed threshold, which could result in
damage to the controller, electrical components and wiring, and the motor.
Cornering Information
Excessively high cornering speeds can still create the possibility of tipping. Factors which affect the
possibility of tipping include, but are not limited to: cornering speed, steering angle (how sharply you
are turning), uneven road surfaces, inclined road surfaces, riding from an area of low traction to an area
of high traction (such as passing from a grassy area to a paved area – especially at high speed while
turning), and abrupt directional changes. High cornering speeds are not recommended. If you feel that
you may tip over in a corner, reduce your speed and steering angle (i.e., lessen the sharpness of the
turn) to prevent your scooter from tipping.
WARNING! When cornering sharply, reduce your speed and maintain a stable center of gravity.
Avoid shifting your weight in the opposite direction of the turn, which may cause the scooter to
lose traction and tip over.

Outdoor Operation, Public Streets and Roadways, Parking Lots, Intersections, Motor
Vehicles and Pedestrians
Your scooter is a sophisticated motorized vehicle. As with any type of vehicle, it is the responsibility of
the user to contribute to his/her own safety by adhering to applicable state and local traffic laws, as well
as those laws set forth specifically for operation of personal mobility products. In addition, scooter users
should be courteous to fellow pedestrians and follow basic safety rules when traveling in high-risk areas
such as busy intersections, on sidewalks, and in parking lots.
Avoid operating your scooter on public streets and roadways intended for automotive traffic, such
as cars, trucks, and buses. Your scooter is rated for outdoor use on bicycle paths and other similar
roadways intended for low-speed personal mobility products. Refer to the code of practice for
personal mobility vehicles in your region for more information.
Obey all pedestrian traffic signals and signs.
Remain visible to all traffic by use of safety equipment such as reflectors, lights, and safety flags.
Reduce your speed and give an audible signal before passing fellow pedestrians on sidewalks.
Drive on the shoulder of the road or as close as possible to the curb when an adequate sidewalk
does not exist.
Stop and search for any on-coming traffic before crossing a roadway or intersection.
Stay alert for vehicles entering/exiting parking spaces when navigating through parking lots.
WARNING! In most states, scooters are not legal for use on public roads. Even where legally
permitted, you should avoid the risk of collision by not operating your scooter on public streets
and roadways which are intended for cars, trucks, motorcycles and other large and fast- moving
motor vehicles to avoid any risk of severe injury or death.
WARNING! You should not operate your scooter on public streets and roadways intended for cars,
trucks, and other large automotive vehicles. Be aware that it may be difficult for traffic to see you
when you are seated on your scooter. Obey all local pedestrian traffic rules. Wait until your path is
clear of traffic, and then proceed with extreme caution. We strongly recommend the use of safety
equipment such as reflectors/reflective clothing, lights, and safety flags. Contact your authorized
provider for information on the availability of these safety accessories.
WARNING! The tires on your scooter are not rated for highway use. NEVER use the tires from your
scooter on a motor vehicle or on equipment used for another purpose, including but not limited
to, towing applications or on public highways. Unintended use of the tires may result in personal
injury, property injury, or death.
WARNING! Exercise extreme caution when operating the scooter on footpaths, pavements,
bridleways, pedestrian areas and roads. Obey all local pedestrian traffic rules.
WARNING! When travelling in a parking lot or crossing any street or roadway, obey all pedestrian
traffic control devices, signs and directives and be alert to nearby motor vehicle traffic. Wait until
your pathway is clear and proceed with extreme caution to avoid any risk of severe injury or death.
Visibility - Can You See Ahead and Can Others See You?
WARNING! At nighttime, and in other low light or low visibility settings, it may be difficult for you to see
the path ahead or your surroundings to avoid dangerous surfaces or collision with obstacles, vehicles,
or pedestrians. Never proceed when you are unable to clearly see around you and the pathway ahead.
Use of additional lights or lighting accessories may enhance your ability to see around you and ahead.
Failure to use these safety features may result in severe injury, property damage, or death. Contact
your authorized provider for information on the availability of lighting accessories.
WARNING! Be aware that even if you can clearly see around you and the pathway ahead, it may
be difficult for motor vehicle operators to notice you when you are seated in your scooter. Use
of accessories such as reflectors, reflective clothing, lights, and/or safety flags may make you
more noticeable to others, particularly at nighttime and in other low light or low visibility settings.
Failure to use these safety features may result in severe injury, property damage, or death. Contact
your authorized provider for information on the availability of these accessories.

HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
The hazard identification surround shape is represented as a black symbol on a yellow triangle with
a black border. It is used to indicate a potentially hazardous condition/situation that could result
in personal injury, component damage, or malfunction. Follow all recommended mandatory and
prohibited actions to avoid or prevent potentially hazardous conditions/situations.
Stationary Obstacles (Steps, Curbs, etc.)
Proceed with extreme caution when driving near raised
surfaces, unprotected ledges and/or drop-offs (curbs, porches,
stairs, etc.). Refer to the scooter specifications for information
regarding maximum obstacle climbing height for your scooter.
To navigate up over a curb or stationary obstacle:
1. Approach the curb or obstacle slowly, and make sure the
scooter is traveling perpendicular to the obstacle. See
figure 6.
2. Increase the forward speed just before the front wheels
come in contact with the obstacle.
3. Reduce the forward speed only after the rear wheels have
cleared the obstacle.
To navigate down a curb or stationary obstacle:
1. Approach the curb or obstacle slowly, and make sure the
scooter is traveling perpendicular to the obstacle. See
figure 6.
2. Reduce the forward speed just before the front wheels
come in contact with the obstacle.
3. Increase the forward speed only after the rear wheels have
cleared the obstacle and you are once again on a level
surface.
WARNING! Even though your scooter may be capable
of handling greater obstacles, We recommend that
you do not attempt to negotiate a curb that has
a height greater than 2 in. (5 cm). Doing so could
cause instability in your scooter.
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your scooter
climb or descend an obstacle that is inordinately
high unless you have the assistance of an attendant.
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your scooter
proceed backward down any step, curb, or other
obstacle. This may cause the scooter to tip.
WARNING! Do not approach curbs at an angle;
instead approach any curb you intend to ascend or
descend in the forward position.

Outdoor Driving Surfaces
Your scooter is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry, level surfaces
composed of concrete, blacktop, or asphalt. However, we recognize that there will be times when you
will encounter other surface types. For this reason, your scooter is designed to perform admirably on
packed soil and grass. Feel free to use your scooter safely on lawns and in park areas.

The hazard identification surround shape is represented as a black symbol on a yellow triangle with
a black border. It is used to indicate a potentially hazardous condition/situation that could result
in personal injury, component damage, or malfunction. Follow all recommended mandatory and
prohibited actions to avoid or prevent potentially hazardous conditions/situations.
WARNING! Avoid driving on uneven terrain and/or soft surfaces.
WARNING! Avoid tall grass that can entangle the running gear.
WARNING! Avoid loosely packed gravel, sand, or uneven terrain.
WARNING! Do not use your scooter on or near railroad tracks or crossings.
WARNING! Do not use your scooter in fresh or salt water.
WARNING! Do not use your scooter at the edge of a stream, lake, or ocean.
WARNING! If you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid that surface.
NOTICE: If at any time you feel uncomfortable with the way your scooter handles on a particular
driving surface, contact your authorized dealer. Your dealer may be able to adjust the performance
parameters of your controller program to allow a more comfortable ride.
WARNING! Only the scooter manufacturer, an authorized representative of the manufacturer, or a
trained service technician should program the controller.
Inclement Weather Precautions
Even though your scooter has passed the necessary testing requirements for such use, exposure of
your scooter to inclement weather conditions should be avoided whenever possible. If suddenly caught
up in rain, snow, severe cold or heat while operating your scooter, proceed to shelter at the earliest
opportunity. Thoroughly dry your scooter before storing, charging, or operating your scooter.
WARNING! Operating in rain, snow, salt, mist/spray conditions, and on icy/slippery surfaces can
have an adverse effect on the electrical system and may damage the upholstery or cause the
scooter frame to prematurely rust. Maintain and store your scooter in a dry and clean condition.
WARNING! Prolonged exposure to hot or cold conditions may affect the temperature of upholstered
and non-upholstered items on the scooter, possibly resulting in skin irritation. Exercise caution
when using your scooter in extremely hot or cold conditions or when exposing your scooter to
direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time.
Ingress of Liquids
WARNING! Even though the scooter has passed the necessary testing requirements for ingress of
liquids, you should keep electrical connections away from sources of dampness, including direct
exposure to water or bodily fluids and incontinence. Check electrical components frequently for
signs of corrosion and have them replaced as necessary.
WARNING! Never take your scooter into a shower, tub, pool, or sauna. Do not operate your scooter
in fresh or salt water, including lakes, streams, or oceans.

in personal injury, component damage, or malfunction. Follow all recommended mandatory and
prohibited actions to avoid or prevent potentially hazardous conditions/situations.
Lift Systems/Elevation Products
If you will be transporting your scooter during travel, you may find it necessary to use a vehicle-mounted
lift system or elevation product to aid in transportation. We recommend that you closely review the
instructions, specifications, and safety information set forth by the manufacturer of the lift/elevation
product before using that product.
WARNING! Not all lift systems/elevation products are rated for use with an occupied mobility
product. We recommend that you do not remain seated in your scooter when it is being used in
connection with any type of lift system/elevation product unless:
■That product is rated for occupied use by the manufacturer.
■You are able to occupy your mobility product in strict conformity with the warnings, instructions,
specifications, and safety guidelines set forth by the manufacturer.
WARNING! Always turn off the power to the scooter when you are being transferred via an
elevation product. Failure to do so may result in accidental throttle control lever contact, resulting
in unintended movement and personal injury or product damage.
WARNING! Always make sure the scooter is in drive mode when you are being transferred via an
elevation product. If the scooter is left in freewheel mode, unintended movement, personal injury,
and/or product damage could result.
Doors
■Determine if the door opens toward or away from you.
■Drive your scooter gently and slowly forward to push the door open, or drive your scooter gently and
slowly backward to pull the door open.
Stairs and Escalators
Scooters are not designed to travel up or down stairs or escalators. Always use an elevator.
WARNING! Never use your scooter to negotiate stairs or escalators.
WARNING! Use extreme caution when it is necessary to move an unoccupied scooter up or down
stairs. We recommend that two attendants perform this task, and that the seat, batteries, and any
accessories be removed before attempting the transfer. Use proper lifting techniques and use only
solid, non-removable frame components to lift the scooter.
Elevators
Modern elevators have a door edge safety mechanism that, when pushed, reopens the elevator door(s).
■If you are in the doorway of an elevator when the door(s) begin to close, push on the rubber door
edge or allow the rubber door edge to contact the scooter and the door will reopen.
■Use care that pocketbooks, packages, or scooter accessories do not become caught in elevator
doors.
NOTICE: If your scooter’s turning radius is greater than 60 in. (152 cm), it may be difficult to
maneuver in elevators and building entrances. Use caution when attempting to turn or maneuver
your scooter in small spaces and avoid areas that might pose a problem.

in personal injury, component damage, or malfunction. Follow all recommended mandatory and
prohibited actions to avoid or prevent potentially hazardous conditions/situations.
Unoccupied Motor Vehicle Transport
We recommend that you do not remain seated in your scooter while traveling in a motor vehicle. The
scooter should be stowed in the trunk of a car or in the back of a truck or van with batteries removed
and/or properly secured. In addition, all removable scooter parts, including the armrests, seat, and
shrouds, should be removed and/or properly secured during motor vehicle transport.
WARNING! The scooter user should transfer into the motor vehicle seat and use the vehicle-
installed restraint system if and whenever feasible. The scooter user should never sit on the
scooter while it is in a moving vehicle.
WARNING! Although your scooter may be equipped with a positioning belt, this belt is not designed
to provide proper restraint during motor vehicle transport. Anyone traveling in a motor vehicle
should be properly secured in the motor vehicle seat with safety belts fastened securely.
WARNING! Always be sure your scooter and its batteries are properly secured when it is being
transported. Batteries should be secured in an upright position and protective caps should be
installed on the battery terminals. Batteries should not be transported with any flammable or
combustible items.
Seating
We provide an extensive variety of seating systems to fit the needs of the individual user. Please be
aware that the final selection regarding the type of seating system to be used is the responsibility of the
scooter user, who is capable of making such a decision.
WARNING! If the weight capacity of the seating system and the scooter differ, always adhere to the
lesser weight capacity.
WARNING! Should the fittings on your seating system become loose, report the problem
immediately to your authorized dealer. Check any actuators for loose, worn, or damaged items and
have any damaged wires replaced immediately.
WARNING! If your scooter is equipped with power seating, check the immediate area to ensure
nothing is trapped in the mechanism before operating the recline or lift features. Always check
to make sure children and pets are clear of the moving parts of the seating system. Do not store
items under the seat that may interfere with operation of the mechanism. Keep area clear prior to
and during movement.
WARNING! Do not recline the seat while driving or while on an incline or decline. This could cause
the scooter to tip over rearwards, resulting in personal injury and product damage.
WARNING! Do not remove the seat cushion supplied with the scooter. Do not place additional
cushions, padding, or pillows on the seat cushion. This could cause an unstable position, resulting
in a fall from the scooter.
Positioning Belts
Your authorized dealer is responsible for determining your requirement for a positioning belt in order to
operate your scooter safely. Typically, the positioning belt is not designed for use as a restraining device
in a motor vehicle. You should be properly belted into seats approved by the vehicle manufacturer with
your scooter properly stowed for vehicle transport.
Positioning belts should be installed as detailed in “Comfort Adjustments” of the scooter owner’s manual.
Once installed, the belt should be placed across the pelvis.
