Caution!
It is advisable that during the first
few sessions of operating your
scoota that the area around you
is clear of obstacles and
pedestrians.
Before operating your Scoota,
ensure the seat height has been
adjusted to your satisfaction, and
the tiller angle has been set for
optimum safety and comfort.
Mounting
When first driving the scoota, be
sure you and the Elite are on a
level surface. Put the key in its
slot, but leave it turned off. Stand
behind the Elite seat and reach
down to the Seat Lock Lever. It is
located on the right side directly
under the seat (can be configured
on either side of the seat: standard
position is on the right side).
Freewheel mechanism
A freewheel device disengages
the power drive to allow manual
operation (Fig. 10).
The freewheel is selected by
pulling up the lever which is
located at the rear of the scoota.
Once it has been selected a visual
display will appear as shown
(Fig. 11) and it will be
accompanied by a high pitched
sounding of the horn. This is a
safety device to warn you that the
scoota is in freewheel mode.
To stop the horn sounding whilst
pushing your scoota, switch off the
power using the key.
To turn off the freewheel and
engage the motor, simply push the
lever downwards.
Note: Use extreme caution in the
freewheel mode, especially on
slopes/inclines.
