❒
Do not make any additions or alterations to the scooter.
❒
Always ride with the headlight switched on (even during the day).
❒
Use the scooter on public roads only when you have familiarised yourself with its use.
❒
Always check the scooter for signs of damage before putting it into operation. Do not try
to repair bent safety-critical parts such as the frame, forks, handlebar, saddle, saddle post,
or brake levers; have them replaced immediately. "Risk of breakage!"
❒
Use only original spare parts!
❒
Unqualified repairs create risks and danger for the user and void all warranty claims! If
necessary, contact an approved workshop.
❒
Have repairs, particularly on the brake system, carried out only by an approved workshop.
❒
As with all mechanical components, the scooter is subject to wear and high loads. Different materials and components can react differently with respect to wear and fatigue caused
by these loads. If the design service life of a component is exceeded, the component can
suddenly fail and possibly result in injury to the rider. Any form of cracks, scratches or discolourations in highly stressed areas is an indication that the service life of the component
has been reached and that the part should be replaced.
❒
Do not transport any heavy loads! Do not hang bags on the handlebar!
This will impair the riding safety.
❒
Do not ride in wet weather or in snow and ice or on unpaved paths. Be aware that the
effect of the brakes is impaired in unfavourable weather conditions.
❒
Avoid riding in heavy rain, through puddles or snow. Although the scooter has splash
guards, it cannot be protected from water getting on to it. There may therefore be shortcircuits within the electronics. Damage to the electronics caused by "trips in the rain" is
not covered by the guarantee.
❒
Ride carefully and at an appropriate speed at which you have the scooter under control.
Always look ahead and ride defensively.
❒
When you are riding, look out for any potholes, drain covers, tram and railway lines and
other obstacles which might endanger your safe riding.
❒
Keep all body parts away from the rotating parts of the scooter.
Correct behaviour on public roads
❒
Familiarise yourself with the country-specific road-traffic regulations and comply with these
regulations when you are riding.
❒
Do not ride the scooter if you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
❒
Outside of built-up areas, use cycle lanes where they are available. The use of public footpaths and cycle paths is not allowed in built-up areas.
❒
Always ride well to the right and overtake on the left.
❒
Before turning, always give a clearly visible sign with your outstretched arm.
❒
Always ride in the prescribed direction of travel.
❒
Adapt your speed to the weather conditions, a wet road will result in a longer braking
distance!
❒
Do not listen to music via headphones when riding your scooter!
