CHAPTER 1 – Overview of the Scooters main features.
Congratulations on choosing this electrically powered scooter from Sure
Rider.
The Scooter is designed for a maximum occupant mass of 146kg (23 Stone).
This is an indoor/outdoor scooter designed to work in normal environmental
conditions from very cold temperatures (-30ºC/-22ºF) to very hot
temperatures (+45ºC/+113ºF).
The Scooter will operate in light rain showers, but extended use is not
recommended in heavy rain or snow.
The Scooter is easy to operate. The relatively large wheels let the user drive on
unpaved roads, over moderately rough terrain and over obstacles as high as 3” (7
cm).
The Scooter can climb slopes with angles and loads as detailed in Figure: Maxi-
mum Recommended Incline Angles (Page 9).
The Scooters maximum safe slope is: 15º (26.8%).
The braking system stops the Scooter smoothly and within a short distance
after the throttle control lever is released.

you have any questions or concerns, contact your dealer.
The Scooter was developed to use maintenance-free sealed batteries only.

If for any reason the Scooter does not stop when you release the
throttle control lever, or takes longer to stop than it should (3 meters
on a level surface), turn the main key switch to OFF, and contact
your dealer.
Do not use the Scooter in heavy rain or extreme humidity,

parts are damaged, you must get a qualified technician to
examine it before continuing to use it.
WARNING!!! Special care must be taken to prevent children from
operating the Scooter.
Do not allow unsupervised children to play near the Scooter while
the batteries are charging.
Always drive carefully. Adjust your speed according to road
conditions. When turning at high speed, the Scooter can
become unstable. Before making sharp turns, reduce speed to
minimum to prevent roll-over.
The Scooter is able to go up slopes higher than the recommended
safe slope. However, do not drive on slopes whose incline you do
not know. Always drive very slowly and do not drive on the side of
such slopes.
Before starting to drive, make sure your emergency brake operates
properly.
Do not release either the manual or the manual release lever of the
electromagnetic brake (EMB) when the Scooter is on a slope.
When on any sort of an incline, never place the Scooter in
freewheel mode while seated on it or standing next to it.
The lights of the Scooter should be on when visibility is reduced,
day or night.

same kind.
When removing the battery cover, watch out for hot parts. The
motor, axle, EMB, electronic cards and electronic controller might
be hot, Do not touch them until you have checked their
temperature.
Make sure your fingers are not squeezed between the levers
and the rubber grip.
Do not use a cell phone, walkie-talkie, laptop, or other radio transmitter while operating the Scooter.

is necessary to use a 2-pronged electrical outlet, properly install an
approved 3-pronged adapter.
Do not connect an extension cord to the AC/DC converter
or to the battery charger.
Keep tools and other metal objects away from the battery
terminals. Contact with tools can cause electrical shock. Do

CHAPTER 3 – Safety Instructions for the Scooter
GENERAL
MANDATORY! Do not operate your new Scooter for the first
time without reading and understanding this user manual com-
pletely.
Your Scooter is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement device designed to increase
mobility. We provide an extensive range of products to best fit the individual needs
of the user. Please be aware that the final selection and purchasing decision
regarding the type of Scooter to be used is the responsibility of a user who is
capable of making such a decision.
The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility device
expert has properly fitted the Scooter to the user and has assisted the prescribing
Dealer to give instructions for the use of the product.
There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the user will
need to practice operating the Scooter in the presence of a trained attendant. A
trained attendant can be defined as a family member or care professional specially
trained in assisting a user in various daily living activities.
As you begin using your Scooter during daily activities, you will probably
encounter situations in which you will need some practice. Simply take your time
and you will soon be in full and confident control as you manoeuvre through
doorways, on and off elevators, up and down ramps, and over moderately rough
terrain.
Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will help
you operate the Scooter safely.
MODIFICATIONS
We have designed and engineered your Scooter to provide
maximum mobility and utility. Under no circumstances should you
modify, add, remove, or disable any feature, part, or function of
your Scooter.
