12 BACKGROUND

If you are using a mobility vehicle for the first time, or

BACKGROUND

MovingLife's ATTO is an advanced-technology Class A
mobility scooter, designed for use indoors and on
sidewalks. When driving on a pavement you should
follow the rules for pedestrians. You should give
pedestrians priority and show consideration for other
pavement users, particularly those with a hearing or
visual impairment who may not be aware that you are
there.

In most countries, mobility scooters may only be used
by a disabled person, or by a nondisabled person who
is demonstrating a vehicle before sale, training a
disabled user or taking the vehicle to or from a place
for maintenance or repair. A disabled person in this
context is someone with an injury, physical disability,
or medical condition which means that they are
unable to walk or have difficulty in walking.

if it has been a while since you have driven one, you
are strongly advised to get some training to ensure
that you can steer and control the vehicle properly,
especially on uneven surfaces. Your assessment
should include checking your eyesight, reaction time,
balance and posture, ability to sit for long periods of
time, concentration and ability to get on and off the
ATTO. You may also want to consider having a regular
review of your driving skills.

Although in most countries there are no legal eyesight
requirements, good vision is important for driving a
mobility vehicle safely. You should be able to judge
distances, recognize obstacles and hazards, and be
able to see pedestrians and other road users. Poor
eyesight could be a contributory factor in an accident
and could make you liable for a compensation claim.
Vision can change with age and you are
recommended to have regular sight tests.

If you are eligible to be registered as severely sight
impaired (blind), you should not drive a mobility
scooter as this would put yourself and others at risk. If

BACKGROUND 13

NOTE

you are eligible to be registered as sight impaired
(partially sighted), you should speak to your
optometrist or doctor.

If you regularly take medication that makes you
drowsy, you should consider whether it would be safe
to use a mobility scooter. If you are in any doubt,
consult your doctor. You should not use a mobility
scooter if you have been drinking alcohol.

Laws and regulation may vary from country to
country and from state to state. Always check with
local authorities to ensure you can use your
mobility scooter and of the restrictions that apply.

Certification and Compliance

ATTO can be used on footpaths, pavements,
bridleways, and in pedestrian areas and can be used
on the road if a pavement is not available, or where it
is necessary to cross the road.

Subject to space availability and depending on local
regulations, you may be able to travel in your ATTO on
buses and trains, so long as those vehicles are
constructed or adapted to carry a mobility scooter,
and providing that your ATTO fits in.

The ATTO Mobility Scooter is designed to comply with
the following international safety requirements for
medical electrical equipment:
Safety: EN 12184 and ISO 7176-15
EMC: ISO 7176-21
Risk Management: ISO 14971
Regulatory Compliance: EEC: Annex V of 93/42/EEC

General

• Always turn the power off when the unit is not in

use.

• Always make sure your seat is locked in fully

opened position before driving your ATTO.

• Always remain properly seated when operating

your ATTO.

• Use caution when driving on soft or uneven

surfaces such as grass and gravel.

• Use caution on decks where there is no railing.

• Turning too sharply around a corner can cause the

ATTO to tip over. Avoid this danger at all times by
steering a wide arc around corners and obstacles.

To avoid the risk of tipping over, reduce speed
before negotiating any turns.

• For emergency stop, press the On/Off button.

• Never attempt to drive over or off obstacles

higher than 20 mm (3/4”) when driving forward
and 18 mm (45/64”) when driving in reverse. This
could be unsafe and could damage the ATTO.

• Avoid turning off the power while the ATTO is

moving. Doing so will cause the ATTO to come to
an abrupt stop.

• Avoid reaching or bending while driving your

ATTO. Bending forward creates the risk of
accidental throttle lever contact. Bending
sideways while seated creates the risk of tipping
over. It is important to maintain a stable center of
gravity and keep the ATTO from tipping.

Driving in public

• Do not ride your ATTO in traffic, on public streets

and roadways.

• Be aware that it may be difficult for traffic to see

you when you are seated on the ATTO. Obey all

SAFETY 17

local pedestrian traffic rules. Wait until your path
is clear of traffic, and then proceed with extreme
caution.

• If the power button is switched off while driving

on horizontal level plan at maximum speed
(Limited by software) of 6.4 km/h (4 mph), it will
come to a stop with a maximum stopping distance
of 1.1 m (about 4 ft). Please consider this distance
when driving.

• Do not attempt to use your ATTO on stairs or

escalators. Always use an elevator.

• Do not operate your ATTO where you could not

safely or legally walk.

• Never operate your ATTO near steps or curbs

where you might accidentally drop a wheel of the
edge.

• Enter narrow driving paths/doorways slowly and

with caution and always look out for additional
obstacles such as car mirrors or door knobs.

Sharp turns

• Avoid sudden starts while the handlebar is turned

sharply.

• Do not make a sharp turn or a sudden stop while

riding your ATTO.

• Always reduce your speed and maintain a stable

center of gravity when cornering sharply. Do not
corner sharply when driving at higher speeds.

• Always reduce the speed of your ATTO when

making turns.

Driving angles

• Do not attempt to climb ramps, slopes, curbs, or

any low-rise slope with an angle greater than the
limits specified on the Technical Specification.

• When climbing an incline, do not drive at an angle

to the incline. Drive your ATTO straight up the
incline. This greatly reduces the risk of tipping
over or falling.

• For maximum stability, lean forward on your seat

while proceeding up ramps, slopes, curbs, or any
low rise.

18 SAFETY

• Drive with caution when attempting to negotiate

any incline, even handicap access ramps.

• Do not traverse or drive across the face of a slope.

• Do not attempt to negotiate an incline that is

covered with snow, ice, cut or wet grass, leaves,
or any other potentially hazardous material.

• Try to keep your ATTO moving when climbing an

incline. If you do come to a stop, restart and
accelerate slowly and carefully.

• While you are driving down a slope, if your ATTO

starts to move faster than you feel is safe, release
the thumb lever and allow your ATTO to come to
a stop. When you feel that you have gained
control of your ATTO again, press the thumb lever
and continue safely down the remainder of the
slope.

• Do not place your ATTO in freewheel mode when

on an incline or decline.

• Never park on inclines or declines.

• If you must stop on an incline, always lean

forward to shift the center of gravity and prevent
the ATTO from tipping over backwards.

Reversing

• Make sure that there are no obstacles behind you

while reversing your ATTO.

• Do not attempt to have your ATTO move

backward down any step, curb or other obstacle.
This may cause the ATTO to fall or tip over.

Arms and legs

• When getting on or off your ATTO, do not put

most or all of your weight on the edge of the
deck. Doing so may cause the ATTO to tip over.

• Do not leave your hands and legs off the ATTO

when driving.

• Keep your hands and legs away from the wheels

while driving the ATTO. Be aware that loose fitting
clothing may get caught in moving parts.

• Always keep your legs on the feet pads while you

are seated on your ATTO.

SAFETY 19

Weather

• Do not operate or store your ATTO where it will

be exposed to rain, snow, mist, and below
freezing temperatures.

• Do not operate your ATTO during stormy weather

to reduces the risk of an accident or possible
damage to the ATTO

• Operating in rain, snow, salt, mist conditions and

on icy or slippery surfaces may have an adverse

SAFETY 25

WARNING

EMC information

It is very important that you read this information
regarding the possible effects of electromagnetic
interference on your ATTO.

Each mobility scooter can resist EMI up to certain
intensity. This is called the "EMI immunity level". The
higher the EMI immunity level, the greater the
protection from EMI. Currently the ATTO technology
has an immunity level of at least 20 V/m, which
provides useful protection from the more common
sources of EMI.

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) from radio wave sources

Mobility scooters may be susceptible to
electromagnetic interference (EMI), which is
interfering electromagnetic energy (EM) emitted from
sources such as radio stations, TV stations, amateur
radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios, and
cellular phones. The interference (from radio wave
sources) can cause the mobility scooter to release its
brakes, move by itself, or move in unintended
directions. It can also permanently damage the
mobility scooter control system. The intensity of the
interfering EM energy can be measured in volts per
meter (V/m).

There are a number of sources of relatively intense
electromagnetic fields in the daily 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 warning
listed below, your risk to EMI will be minimized.

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

1) Hand-held portable transceivers. These are

transmitters-receivers with the antenna mounted
directly on the transmitting unit. These devices
include citizens band (CB) radios, walkie-talkies,
security, fire and police transceivers, cellular

26 SAFETY

telephones, and other personal communication
devices).

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

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.

3) Long-range transmitters and transceivers, such as

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

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

Mobility Scooter Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)

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 mobility scooter control system while
using these devices. This can affect mobility scooter
movement and braking.

Therefore, the warnings listed below are intended to
prevent possible interference with the control system
of the ATTO. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from
sources such as radio and TV stations, amateur radio
(HAM) transmitters, two-way radios, and cellular
phones can affect mobility scooters.

SAFETY 27

WARNING

WARNING

and note whether there is a source of EMI

Following the warnings listed below should reduce
the chance of unintended brake release or 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 ATTO is turned ON;

2) Be aware of nearby transmitters, such as

radio or TV stations, and try to avoid getting
close to them;

3) If unintended movement or brake release

occurs, turn the ATTO OFF as soon as it is safe;

4) Be aware that adding accessories or

components, or modifying the ATTO, may
make it more susceptible to EMI (NOTE: There
is no easy way to evaluate their effect on the
overall EMI immunity of the ATTO);

5) Report all incidents of unintended movement

or brake release to the ATTO manufacturer

Important

EMI/RFI – ATTO has passed an EMI immunity test
according to EN 60601-1 Class B.
Modification of any kind to the electronics of the
ATTO as manufactured by MovingLife may adversely
affect the EMI immunity levels.

The operation of the ATTO might disturb the
operation of devices in its environment due to
emitting of electromagnetic fields (e.g. alarm
systems of shops, automatic doors, etc.).

The ATTO Mobility Scooter does not generate any
hazardous radiation.

Turning corners

Turning at high speed may cause a tipping over. Factors
affecting the possibility of tipping over include turning
speed, steering angle (how sharply you are turning the
steering tiller), uneven road surfaces, inclined road
surfaces, a transition from low grip area to high grip
area (as moving from a grass surface to a paved surface

- especially at high speed while turning), and abrupt
changes of direction. High speed turning is not
recommended. If you feel you are about to tip over
while turning, reduce speed and steering angle (i.e.,
make the turn wider) to prevent your ATTO from
tipping over.

When you turn a sharp corner, reduce speed. When
you use the ATTO at a high speed, do not turn
sharply. This will reduce the risk of overturning and
falling. Always exercise discretion when taking a turn
to avoid injury and damage to property.

64 TRANSPORTING ATTO

WARNING

NOTE

To transport ATTO in a car please see the “Separating

TRANSPORTING ATTO

the chassis” chapter in this Owner’s Manual.

ATTO can be effortlessly transported in many types of
vehicles, on land, see or by air.

Transport of ATTO on commercial aircraft is subject to
federal regulations and airline policy. Please consult
your airline prior to your flight to ensure your ATTO and
its lithium-ion battery is permitted.

To transport ATTO:

 For safety reasons, remove the battery and place it

in a safe location.

 Make sure it is fully closed.
 To prevent injury and damage, secure ATTO in a

way that will prevent it from moving around or
shaking.

 Cover or otherwise secure the tiller and handlebar

to prevent it from being damaged due to moving
objects or by ATTO shifting around during
transport.

• If your ATTO and its components are not properly

and securely stowed, the ATTO or components
may shift around while driving causing injury or
damage.

• If the ATTO is transported in a vehicle when fully

assembled and in open position, no one should
sit on the ATTO during loading and transport.

• If you use an external lifting system, be sure to

secure your ATTO as it could fall off the lift.

When transporting ATTO, make sure it is always in an
environment within the allowed specifications for
humidity and temperature.

WARNING

NOTE: ATTO's battery can be charged while it is

installed on the ATTO or when it is removed from the
ATTO.

Do not leave the battery pack and charger plugged in
for more than 12 hours. Damage to the battery pack
and a hazardous condition may result.

MAINTENANCE 67

MAINTENANCE

ATTO’s expected service life is 10 years and it will
extend much longer provided care and maintenance
procedures are carefully followed.

Please follow the maintenance procedures whenever
needed or at least once a year.

Replacement parts are available from MovingLife and
authorized service facilities (See back cover for details).

Electrical fuse

Your ATTO Battery has a protecting fuse at the bottom
of the battery pack (see Figure 63).

Figure 63 Fuse location

Possible causes for the fuse to blow

The fuse is designed to protect the battery from over
charging/discharging. You should check the condition of
the fuse if:

• The battery is not charging.

• A charged battery is connected to ATTO but

ATTO does not turn on.

• ATTO has turned off unexpectedly during

operation.

68 MAINTENANCE

WARNING

NOTE

Working Fuse

Blown Fuse (Replace)

Replacing a blown fuse

To check the fuse (see Figure 65):

Figure 64 Identifying fuse condition

• Remove the battery and place it on a secure surface

such as a table, with its bottom facing up.

• Remove the fuse plastic cover.

• Pull out the fuse.

Examine the fuse to see if it is blown. A blown fuse has
a gap in the wire. In case it is blown (see Figure 64),
replace it with a new fuse blade type ATO or ATC,
Green (30A).

Once a new fuse has been placed please remember to
place the plastic cover back in its place (Figure 65).

Figure 65 Replacing a blown fuse

Never soak your ATTO in any liquid. This may cause
personal injury and/or damage to your ATTO.

If the fuse continues to blow, an underlying
electrical fault needs professional attention. Please
contact an authorized MovingLife dealer.

MAINTENANCE 69

NOTE

REQUIRES TOOLS

Lubrication

Do not replace the fuse repeatedly. You must correct
the underlying problem. Failure to correct the
problem could cause injury or damage and will void
the warranty.

There are two lubrication areas where a light spray of
lubricant should be applied every six months or more
rapidly if opening and closing ATTO becomes more
difficult to perform (you may use other light lubricant
as long as they are not sticky or corrosive on aluminum
and plastics).

Do not attempt electrical repairs. Consult MovingLife
or your authorized MovingLife dealer.

Wheels and Tires

Your ATTO is equipped with one front motor with solid
tire and two rear wheels with solid tires. This means
that there is no air in any of the tires. The tires are filled
with foam and you will never have a flat tire even if you
puncture the tire. If for any reason there is a need to
replace a tire due to erosion or damage, please contact
an authorized MovingLife dealer.

Lubrication points are shown in Figure 66:

1. Seat post including tracks.

2. Wheel shafts.

Clean the areas to be lubricated with clean cloth leaving
no fibers, sand or dust on the ATTO. Once you are done
lubricating and testing the ATTO for proper and easy
operation, clean the entire surrounding parts from
lubricant residues.

70 MAINTENANCE

WARNING

Battery & Charging

• These batteries are maintenance-free.

• Your ATTO is being equipped with Li-ion battery,

which does not have a “memory” issue and

therefore it is not necessary to completely

discharge the battery before recharging it.

Figure 66

All the bearings on your ATTO are permanently
lubricated and sealed and therefore no lubrication is
required.

Battery

ATTO's battery holds a substantial amount of power.
Shorting of the terminals can result in burns or other
injuries and in damage to the battery and to the
electronic components of your ATTO. Always use
care and caution when handling the battery.

• If you are not going to use your ATTO for an

extended period of time, charge the batteries to

60% of full charge before storing your ATTO. The

batteries can be left unmaintained for up to 6

months if they are properly charged and kept at

room temperature approximately 22 °C (~ 72° F).

• If you have not used your ATTO for more than one

month, make sure that you charge the batteries on

the night before you are going to use your ATTO.

This will ensure that you start operating your ATTO

with a fully charged battery.

• There is no danger of spillage or leakage, so these

batteries are safe to transport on aircrafts, busses,

trains, etc.

• Following the procedures set out in this Owner's

Manual will extend the life of your batteries.

MAINTENANCE 71

WARNING

WARNING

• If electrical terminals on the ATTO become

corroded, they need to be cleaned by a certified
MovingLife technician.

• If battery terminals become corroded, it has to be

FIRE HAZARD! Do not cover the battery charger and
ventilation slot while charging your battery. Only use
the battery charger in well-ventilated areas.

• Remove the battery pack from the ATTO.

• Store your ATTO in ambient, dry environment.

• Avoid storing your ATTO where it will be exposed to

temperature extremes.

Always protect batteries from freezing temperatures
and never charge a frozen battery. This damages the
battery and can cause personal injury.

To use ATTO after an extended period of storage:

Cleaning, body care

ATTO's body is made of ABS parts, a durable plastic
with integrated paint. To help ATTO retain high gloss
you may clean it using clean cloth moistened with
water.

Storage

If you plan to not use your ATTO for an extended
period, it is best to:

• Open ATTO if it was closed / folded during storage.

• Visually inspect all user adjustment levers, look for

possible damage in plastic and metal parts, and

ensure all moving parts works and has no evidence

of corrosion. If you do find a part which do not

function as expected or has corrosion, call a

certified technician for advice how to continue.

• Insert the battery and turn ATTO on.

• Check that the display and all buttons work as

expected. If you find no problems you may use

ATTO, otherwise call a certified MovingLife

technician.
