SAFETY DRIVING
8) Safety notice:
8.1. Key in “OFF”: To avoid the scooter moving away
unexpectedly, always turn the key to the “OFF”
position before dismounting or leaving the scooter
unattended.
8.2. Rear brake: Always engage the rear brake when
mounting or dismounting the scooter. Ensure that you
are seated on the scooter and check that the stands
are clear of the ground before touching the throttle. If
you twist the throttle before you are ready to go or
while you are mounting the scooter it may move away
from you and could lead to an accident.
9) Water and cleaning: Your scooter can be ridden in
wet and rainy conditions. When riding in rain, do not
ride through deep puddles or muddy areas as
excessive water will cause the motor and other
electrical components to suffer damage. During
cleaning, as with any motor vehicle, be sure to avoid
soaking any electrical component to avoid serious
damage. Never use high pressure washer when
cleaning the bike.
10) Parking: Your bike should not be left in strong, direct
sunlight or heavy rain for extended periods of time as it will
prematurely age and damage paintwork and the general
finish of the scooters appearance and some of the electric
components may overheat.
11) Riding: Never ride your bike overloaded. Prolonged use
with excessive weight could cause serious damage to the
electronic and mechanical parts and void your warranty. It is
recommended that all new scooter riders enroll in
motorbike riding training.
12) Road rules: As with any vehicle, a scooter rider must
always comply with the local road traffic rules and
regulations. Before taking your scooter out on a public road,
make sure you are familiar with traffic rules and regulations
and any special requirements for motorcycles & scooters.
13) Never drink and ride: Alcohol slows reflexes and greatly
limits your ability to operate a scooter. Even a very small
amount of alcohol will reduce your ability to operate a
scooter safely.
