GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
11
WARNING! Do not tow your scooter. Towing may
exceed the maximum speed threshold, resulting in
damage to critical components of the scooter.
WARNING! Use extreme caution when it is
necessary to move an unoccupied scooter up or
down stairs. Remove the seat, batteries, and any
accessories before attempting the transfer. Use proper
lifting techniques and use only solid, non-removable
frame components to lift the scooter with multiple
physically capable attendants. Do not lift or move your
scooter or seating system by grasping or holding onto

seat cushions, seat back, or shrouds.

power of the scooter; make sure the scooter is not in

Failure to follow this may result in unintended

WARNING! Never use your scooter to negotiate
stairs or escalators.
WARNING! Never sit on the scooter while it is in
a moving vehicle.
