EasyTravel Elite – ET1E User’s Manual Rev. 0708 4

1. INTRODUCTION

The EasyTravel Elite is a “Class A” Electrically powered scooter. It is in-

tended 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 re-

sult 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 manoeuvring 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

will help you prevent personal injury and damage to your scooter.

1. Read this manual and all labels before operating.

2. Do not carry passengers or exceed the maximum weight capacity.

3. Do not mount or dismount the EasyTravel Elite unless it has come to a

full stop and is turned off.

4. Do not back up on to uneven inclines or surfaces.

5. Always switch the speed selector to low when driving in a confined space.

6. Always reduce speed when turning.

7. Do not operate your scooter when under the influence of alcohol, medica-

tions or drugs that may impair your safety.

8. Always keep your feet on the foot platform when driving.

9. Do not sit on the scooter while being transported in a moving vehicle. Al-

ways fold down and secure your EasyTravel Elite and transfer yourself

to a vehicle seat.

4. ASSEMBLY AND FOLDING INSTRUCTIONS

4.1. Assembling your EasyTravel Elite.

Unfolding Rear Frame

Pull on the folded frame lock pin ring (Fig.

4/1) to release the foot platform and un-

fold the frame. Pull the seat backrest

(Fig. 4/2) and lift it to the upright position.

Ensure that the unfolded frame lock pin

secures the platform in the horizontal po-

sition.

Unfolding Front Column

Pull the column lock triggers (Fig. 4/3)

upward towards the handle to release the

tilt lock. Move the drive unit away from

the column (all the way) to open the

quick-release housing.

This is the column “detach” position.

Connecting the Front Column to the

Rear Frame

Position the column in the “detach” posi-

tion. Lift the front of the Foot platform and

insert connection pin into the quick-

release housing on the drive unit. This

may be done without bending down by

lifting the front of the seat “lip” while hold-

ing the front column hand-grip as shown

in Fig. 5.

and release. Push lightly back and forth

on the column to ensure that it is locked

just column to one of the two the

rear-most positions.

Travel Elite seat comfortably, the

column may be moved away from the

seat to the entry/exit position.

3. For detaching the front column from

the rear frame, adjust the column

(Fig. 6/3); remove battery before ad-

justing the column to the detach posi-

tion.
