If riding in poor weather conditions (rain, snow, ice) cannot be avoided, be
especially careful and go slowly. The EGRET is not designed for use in wet
weather, because slippery roadways greatly increase the distance needed to
brake.
After scooter maintenance, moisture may cause a delayed response in the
braking system. For this reason, after cleaning the scooter you should care-
fully "brake the brakes dry" somewhere away from traffic or carefully apply
the brakes more often when riding in the rain to maintain the proper braking
effect.
If your scooter fails to reach full speed or range even with
a fully charged battery, this may be due to an unusual use of
your scooter, tyre pressure that is too low or a problem with the
battery.
Extreme temperatures, steep inclines, heavy loads, advanced battery age and
longer periods of storage without charging have a major effect on battery
performance.
Please note that regular use and charging (a full charge at least once every 60
days) is required to maintaining the service life of battery.
