IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

2

•This scooter is designed for single person use only at any one time.

•Maximum load is 115 kg / 253 lbs.

•Turn key off before getting on or off.

•Always drive carefully and be aware of others using the same area.

•Always use pedestrian crossings wherever possible. Take extreme care when crossing

roads.

•

Do not drive on slope exceeding 6 degree, and take extreme care when turning on slope.

•Do not use full power when turning to sharp corner.

•Take great care and drive in low speed when backing up, riding downhill or on uneven

surface, and climbing curb.

•Please use the lowest speed when driving through the descending road or uneven terrain.
If speed is too fast, leave your hand off the handle bar, let the scooter stop. Make sure
safety and start again.

•A slow speed must always be used when ascending, descending or traversing aslope
or incline and also on uneven terrain, ramps and soft or loose surfaces, such as gravel
or grass.

•To prevent any danger, do not turn around at high speed on ascending, descending ramp.

•Scooter may not operate well in high humidity.

•Do not leave the powered scooter in a rain storm of any kind.

•Do not use the powered scooter in a shower.

•Direct exposure to rain or dampness will cause the scooter to malfunction electrically

and mechanically; may cause the powered scooter to prematurely rust.

•Never put scooter in neutral when staying on slopes.

•Follow traffic laws when riding outside.

•When scooter on moving transport vehicles, do not sit or stay on scooter.

ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE
AND WARNINGS

CAUTION : It is very important that you read this information regarding the possible

effects of Electromagnetic Interference on your motorized scooter.

Powered wheelchairs and motorized scooters may be susceptible to electromagnetic

interference (EMI), which is interfering electromagnetic energy (EM) emitted from sources

such a radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios,

and cellular phones. The interference (from radio wave sources) can cause the motorized

scooter to release its brakes, move by itself, or move in unintended directions. It can also

permanently damage the motorized scooter control system. The intensity of the interfering

EM energy can be measured in volts per meter (V/m). Each motorized scooter can resist

EMI up to certain intensity. This is called its "immunity level." The higher the immunity

level, the greater the protection. At this time, current technology is capable of achieving

at least a 20 V/m immunity level, which would provide useful protection from the more

common sources of radiated EMI. This immunity level of this motorized scooter model

is 30 V/m.

There are a number of sources of relatively intense electromagnetic fields in the everyday

environment. Some of these sources are obvious and easy to avoid. Others are not apparent

and exposure is unavoidable. However, we believe that by following the warnings listed

below, your risk to EMI will be minimized.

1.Hand-held portable transceivers (transmitters-receivers) with the antenna mounted

directly on the transmitting unit. Examples include: citizens band (CB) radios, "walkie

talkie," security, fire, and police transceivers, cellular telephones, and other personal

communication devices;

2.Medium-range mobile transceivers, such as those used in police cars, fire trucks,

ambulances, and taxis. These usually have the antenna mounted on the outside of the

vehicle; and

3.Long-range transmitters and transceivers such as commercial broadcast transmitters

(radio and TV broadcast antenna towers) and amateur (HAM) radios.

The sources of radiated EMI can be broadly classified into three types :

Some cellular telephones and similar devices transmit signals while they
are ON, even when not being used.

Other types of hand-held devices, such as cordless phones, laptop
computers, AM/FM radios, TV sets, CD players, and cassette players,
and small appliances, such as electric shavers and hair dryers, so far
as we know, are not likely to cause EMI problems to your motorized
scooter.

There is no easy way to evaluate their effect on the overall immunity
of the motorized scooter.

Motorized Scooter Electromagnetic Interference :

Because EM energy rapidly becomes more intense as one move closer to the transmitting

antenna (source), the EM fields from hand-held radio wave sources (transceivers) are of

special concern. It is possible to unintentionally bring high levels of EM energy very close

to the motorized scooter control system while using these devices. This can affect motorized

scooter movement and braking. Therefore, the warnings listed below are recommended to

prevent possible interference with the control system of the motorized scooter.

Warnings :

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from sources such as radio and TV stations, amateur

radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios, and cellular phones can affect motorized scooters.

Following the warnings listed below should reduce the chance of unintended brake release

or motorized scooter movement which could result in serious injury.

1.Do not operate hand-held transceivers (transmitters-receivers), such as citizens band

(CB) radios, or turn ON personal communication devices, such as cellular phones, while

the motorized scooter is turned ON;

2.Be aware of nearby transmitters, such as radio or TV stations, and try to avoid coming

close to them;

3.If unintended movement or brake release occurs, turn the motorized scooter OFF as

soon as it is safe;

4.Be aware that adding accessories or components, or modifying the motorized scooter,

may make it more susceptible to EMI; and

Important Information :

1.20 volts per meter (V/m) is a generally achievable and useful immunity level against

EMI (as of May 1994). The higher the level, the greater the protection.

2.The immunity level of this product is 30 V/m.

5.Report all incidents of unintended movement or brake release to the distributor listed

on the inside front cover of this manual. Note whether there is a source of EMI nearby.
