1. INTRODUCTION
The EasyTravel Elite is a “Class A” Electrically powered scooter. It is
intended to be used by individuals that are able to walk, but suffer from mild
mobility limitations. The user must have sufficient arm and leg strength to get
on and off the EasyTravel Elite alone and to safely steer under all driving
conditions.
The EasyTravel Elite is intended for indoor and restricted outdoor use on
pavements or paved footpaths only during daylight hours. The EasyTravel
Elite does not have lights and reflectors and therefore must not be used in
the dark or in limited visibility conditions.
CAUTION : Failure to follow the instructions contained in this manual may
result in injury to the user or to other persons.
2. SAFETY
During your initial use of the EasyTravel Elite we recommend caution as you
practice operating the unit in various situations. Keep the speed at a reduced
level until you are comfortable controlling the scooter. Follow the safety tips
and instructions and you will be comfortable maneuvering through doorways,
on and off lifts, over moderate terrain and up and down ramps.
These safety considerations and tips will help you to operate the EasyTravel
Elite safely. The EasyTravel Elite is a powerful electric vehicle; these rules
