If necessary, stop the scooter before driving onto the ramp:
• Before restarting it, press gently on the accelerator control lever.
• Accelerate gently after stopping on any sloping surface.
DRIVING OFF A RAMP
• Keep the scooter speed selector completely turned in a clockwise direction and set at the
minimum speed.
• If it is necessary to stop, release the accelerator control lever slowly and constantly.
PAVEMENTS
• Never drive on/off a pavement that is higher than indicated in the technical specifications;
• Always drive carefully off a pavement;
• Approach the pavement in a manner that both rear wheels of the scooter go over the curb
at the same moment;
• Do not drive off pavements slantwise, otherwise the scooter will tip over;
• Drive slowly down the curb to avoid jolts. Use as little power as possible.
GRASS AND GRAVEL
The scooter functions well on grass and gravel, and also on hills, but it is necessary to comply
with the operating parameters indicated in this manual, in the technical specifications chapter.
If any situation causes doubt, avoid it.
• Feel free to use the scooter on lawns and in parks;
• Avoid long or high grass, as it could wrap around the scooter axles;
• Avoid loose gravel.
14.5 Driving up and down slopes
DRIVING UP A SLOPE
• To guarantee maximum stability, lean forwards on the scooter seat when you go up ramps
or hills, onto pavements or any low rise;
• Drive carefully when attempting to drive up any slope, including ramps for the disabled;
• Always remain perpendicular to the slope when getting onto/off a sloping surface;
• Never cut sideways across a sloping surface in any direction;
• Do not attempt to drive down a surface covered in snow, ice, freshly cut grass, leaves or
other potentially hazardous materials;
• Do not reverse down a slope;
• Never drive the scooter up or down a slope that is higher than the recommended one. See
the chapter "Technical specifications". Failure to do so could cause serious injury or death;
• Try to keep your scooter moving when driving up or down a slope. If you have to stop, start
up again and accelerate slowly and carefully.
WARNING!
If the scooter starts moving more quickly than you consider safe on a downward
slope, release the accelerator control lever and bring the scooter to a stop. As soon
as you feel you have regained control of the scooter, push the accelerator control
lever and continue driving down the rest of the slope with care.
GOING DOWN A SLOPE
• Set the minimum speed;
• If it is possible to do so safely, drive forwards down any ramp, low rise or sloping surface.
The manufacturer advises against reversing on slopes, ramps, pavements and low rises.
Reversing on a sloping surface can be extremely dangerous.
However, if you do need to reverse, follow one of two procedures.
