INTRODUCTION
Your Golden Buzzaround is a battery-operated personal mobility vehicle. Please
exercise caution and consideration when you are operating it. Driving your Buzzaround
carefully and thoughtfully will help ensure your personal
safety and the safety of other people.
Note: Before learning to operate your Buzzaround, have your Golden Technologies, Inc.
representative determine if it is advisable for you to practice getting on and off your
Buzzaround and operating it in the presence of an attendant.

position. See the “disassembly” section in this manual.
