1) GETTING STARTED

Inside the stowage area you will nd the following items which are

required or need assembly onto your bike:

1 – Plastic Handle Covers

2 – Mirrors

3 – Charging Unit

4 - Your Number Plate, if provided

You will nd that the keys for your new scooter

are attatched to the handlebars. You will need

these to gain access to under the seat. Once

you have located the keys please insert them

into the lock behind the seat where you will

nd items for attachment in the under seat

stowage area. Please note, due to the new-

ness of your bike you may nd that you need to

push down slightly on your seat whilst turning

the key in the lock.

ASSEMBLY

The following information explains how to assemble the

attachment of the handle covers, mirrors and how to

charge your bike.

Handle Covers:

The two plastic colour coded handle covers require

attaching to the bike using a Phillips screw driver.

Taking the mirror covers and the self tapping screws

(provided) oer the mirror cover up to the handle bars

of the bike and insert using the locating tab on the cover

provided. This will ensure the cover lines up with the pre

drilled hole in the bikes handle bars. Screw the cover

onto position using the screw provided and a Phillips

screw driver.

Make sure you determine which is the left hand and right

hand mirror. On the top of the handle bars you will see

two pre manufactured threaded holes in the handle bars

Pulling back the plastic sheath on the stalk of the mirror

wind the mirror into the pre-manufactured hole until it

reaches the nut at the bottom of the thread. Then tighten

into position with the open ended 10mm spanner

ensuring that the mirrors are facing behind you when sat

on the bike. Once in position move the mirrors around to

suit your own rearward facing view requirements.

MIRROR ASSEMBLY

Make sure you determine which is the left hand and right

hand mirror. On the top of the handle bars you will see

two pre manufactured threaded holes in the handle bars

which are for you to locate the mirrors.

Pulling back the plastic sheath on the stalk of the mirror

wind the mirror into the pre-manufactured hole until it

reaches the nut at the bottom of the thread. Then tighten

into position with the open ended 10mm spanner

ensuring that the mirrors are facing behind you when sat

on the bike. Once in position move the mirrors around to

suit your own rearward facing view requirements.

Insert the charging connector to the socket contained at the front

of the seat below the sitting position. Plug your charger into a

mains plug socket and you will see a RED light illuminate as the

bike is on charge. After six hours (approximately) this light will

turn to GREEN at which time you may remove the charger and the

bike is now fully charged. Please check this by turning the keys in

the ignition to ON and viewing the meter before setting o on your

journey.

The range of your bike can uctuate or be eected by the overall
run speed and/or the terrain on which you are using your bike. As a
general rule in normal driving conditions the range of your battery

is approximately 40 miles.

BATTERY CHARGING

Your bike comes with a charger to re-charge the bikes

batteries. Please note, your bike will need to be charged prior

to you making your rst journey. We advise that you give your

bike a full continuous charge prior to riding on the road for

the rst time.

Your bike has a charge meter on the instrument display panel.

When the battery indicator reaches the amber light your

remaining run distance is approximately 10-15 miles.

Your Ego Scooter has four re-chargable batteries tted to the

bike. These batteries have a life expectancy of approximately 18

months, but this may uctuate depending on the use of your bike

and type of journeys you do generally. For details on replacement

of batteries please visit the maintenance section on our website.

Under the riders seat you will see an isolator switch. This switch

is turned to o while your scooter is being transported. Please

ensure you turn this switch to on, prior to your initial full charge.

You may use your isolator switch to safe guard battery life when

leaving your scooter for prolonged periods of time, or to increase

Scooter security when leaving your scooter unattended. We rec-

ommend that your scooter is left on charge at all times when not in

use to prolong the life of he batteries. Failure to do so could invali-

date your warranty.

RUBBER MAT

Your bike is provided with a Rubber Mat for your convenience.

This needs to be inserted onto the oor area and can be re-

moved for washing and to expose the maintenance cover.

Congratulations

Your bike is now ready for use.

2) INSTRUMENTS CONTROLS & OPERATION

This section gives information about the controls and

display of your Street Scoota which contribute to its

daily operation. All the essential controls are easily

within your reach.

Turn Signal

Lights Indicator

Horn

Horn

Back Brake

High Beam

Front Brake

Accelerator

The instrument panel has indicators which give you

important information about your vehicle.

1 Turn signal. The left or right turn signal indicator blinks

when you signal a lane change or turn. The turn signal

switch is operated by pushing the switch left or right

which is located on the left hand handle bar next to the

steering grip. To cancel the indicator, simply push the

button located in the middle of the switch.

2 Lights on indicator. This indicator reminds you that the

exterior lights are on. It comes on when the light switch
is in the rst or second position, rst position is for side

lights and second position is for main headlights.

High Beam Indicator. This indicator comes on with the

high beam when the high beam switch is pushed to start

operation.

3 Speedometer. This shows your speed in miles per

hour (mph) and kilometres per hour (kmh)

4 Battery Gauge. This shows how much charge is left

in the batteries on your scooter. This gauge may show

slightly more or less than the actual amount.

Fully charged batteries will run for approximately 40

miles depending upon conditions. We strongly advise

to keep the batteries on charge when the scooter is

not in use (see section on battery charging).

5 Accelerator and Brake operation. The accelerator

control is on the right hand of the handle bars and

is operated with a twist and go action from rest

when the ignition is turned on

CAUTION: Be aware that as your Street Scoota is

silent from rest, please be aware that when you are

in the rest position and the ignition is switched on,

that twisting the throttle will cause the Scooter to

set o.

It is advised to take your seating position on the

scooter before turning on the ignition, as this will

prevent starting the scooter whilst getting on it.

The rear brake lever is operated by pulling the left
hand lever which is cable operated. The right hand
lever operates the front brake disc assembly which

contains brake uid.

Brake uid should only be replaced in accordance

with the recommendations contained within the

maintenance schedule by a suitably qualied me-

chanic.

6 Horn. To use the horn press either of the two red

buttons located on the handle bars. Operation of

your horn will only work when the Scooter ignition is

turned on.

7 Stand. Your Scooter has two forms of stand.

A side stand for general use which is located on

the left hand side of the scooter and operated by

pushing the stand down with the bottom of your foot

and leaning the scooter slightly to the right where

it will stand on its own. Please note with this stand

down the ignition is cut so that your scooter cannot

operate. This is for your safety.

Don’t Drink and Drive. Alcohol and driving don’t mix. Even one drink

can reduce your ability to respond eectively to driving conditions. Your

reaction time gets worse with every additional drink. Don’t drink and

drive.

Control your speed. Excessive speed is a major factor in crash injuries

and deaths. Generally the higher your speed the greater the risk. Serious

injuries can also occur at lower speeds. Never drive faster than is safe for

current conditions, regardless of the speed limits in force.

Keep your Scooter in safe condition. Having tyre problems or mechani-

cal failure can be hazardous. To reduce the possibility of such problems

check you tyre pressures and condition regularly and complete a general

review of your Scooters condition periodically to ensure it remains in

serviceable condition.

The main stand is predominately used for leaving

the Scooter over longer periods. This stand is on the

under side of the bike and is operated by standing

at the rear of the bike and pushing the stand down

until it connects with ground level. Simultaneously

pull the scooter back backward until it lifts itself

onto the stand.

Please note that when operating either stand your

scooter must be positioned on level ground.

3) AUXILIARY ITEMS

Steering Lock. The steering lock is operated by

turning the handlebars to the far left position

and inserting the ignition key into the key barrel.

Now turn the key anticlockwise to the steering

lock position and remove the key. The Scooters

handle bars can now not be turned.

Top Box. Your Scooter is provided

with a storage top box located at

the rear of the bike. This box has
a separate key to unlock/lock the
top box which is an ideal area for

storing your belongings.

Storage Cubby Hole. Underneath the

handle bar assembly is a lockable

cubby hole which is operated by

your ignition key.

Isolator Switch. The rider’s seat has a

lock assembly which is operated by a

separate key. The seat opens to allow

access to another storage

compartment. Contained within this

area is a Scooter isolation switch. You

will see that this switch has a lever

which is turned to the on or o posi-

tion. For increased security and to

save battery power when your scooter

is left for long periods of time such as

holidays etc please turn the isolator

to the ‘O’ position which then cuts all

power to the Scooter.

4) MAINTENANCE

Maintenance. Regularly maintaining your Scooter is the best way

to protect your investment. You will be rewarded with safer, more

economical and trouble free riding if you carry out routine maintenance.

This means checking your Scooter regularly, carrying out simple tasks

you can do yourself such as checking the operation of your mirrors,

checking tyre pressures, brake eectiveness etc and generally keeping

your scooter clean and in god overall condition.

When checking your scooter over please ensure your are parked on level

ground, and that the scooter is securely positioned on either the side

stand or main stand.

To clean your scooters please ensure you use appropriate cleaners for

the job in hand. - Do not use a pressure washer/jet wash on your scooter.

We cannot warn you of every hazard that can arise from using your

scooter, only you can decide if it is safe to ride or perform maintenance

on your scooter under the current circumstances.
