FOLD & UNFOLD THE SCOOTER SAFELY (See page 2)
Fold up the scooter from standing mode:
Press the button on the bottom of the T-bar and pull it up until it is free to turn. Turn
the T-bar until it comes to lie horizontally. Lock it in position by pushing it into the
hole until it "clicks" in. It is now in trolley mode and you can carry it around.
Unfold the scooter from trolley mode:
Press the button on the bottom of the T-bar and pull it up until it is free to turn. Turn
it carefully until the T-bar is vertically standing on the deck. Push in the T-bar until
you hear a "click" sound and make sure the T-bar is securely locked before playing.
Disassemble the T-bar from the deck:
Press the button on the bottom of the T-bar and pull it up until it is free to turn. Turn
the T-bar and watch the Globber ring around the hole. Align the 2 pins on the T-bar
with the slots of the Globber ring, so that it can then be pulled out easily.
Warning! Be careful when you do any installation and transformation work. While
turning the T-bar, make sure no other people are in the close vicinity around the
scooter since the T-bar turns requires a big turning angle. Keep the kids in a safe
distance while installing & transforming the scooter to avoid accidental injuries.
Steering: ELITE's steering responds intuitively to the movement of the body.
- When the child leans to the right, ELITE turns right!
- When the child leans to the left, ELITE turns left!
For the youngest children, on flat surfaces and in straight lines, ELITE has a
steering blocking system for better balance and to make learning easier.
- To lock the steering, press the button on the front part of the deck.
- To release the steering, press the button under the deck.
During use:
- Standing on the scooter, one hand on each handle, push with one of your feet to
move forward. Proceed with caution at the start.
- Braking: a brake is located at the rear, when necessary press down on it to slow
down. Press down gradually in order to prevent skidding or loss of stability.
- Shoes are mandatory and we strongly advise you to wear trousers and long
sleeve shirts to avoid injury if you fall.
- Explain to the child clearly how to lock the scooter before any use.
Care / Maintenance:
Regular maintenance is a safety commitment:
- Wheel bearings: avoid going through water, oil or sand as this can damage
wheel bearings.
- Wheels: the wheels wear down with time and can be damaged if overly used
on rough surfaces. The back wheel on which the brake is applied is particularly
affected after several hours of braking. In the interests of safety, they should be
checked regularly and changed if necessary.
- Modifications: the original product must by no means be modified except for the
maintenance-related changes mentioned in these instructions.
- Nuts and axles: these should also be checked regularly. They can become loose
after a while in which case they should be tightened. They can become worn and
not tighten properly, in which case they should be replaced.
- Cleaning: Clean the scooter with a soft cloth and a little water.
