8. RIDING OPERATION

GETTING READY
• Put on your protective gear
and choose a suitable place for
driving the scooter (see the SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS chapter)
• Unfold the scooter and adjust
the handlebar to the suitable height,
according to your stature (see the
Folding, unfolding and adjusting the
handle-bar height chapter)
WARNING!
When you accelerate suddenly, you risk losing balance due to inertia. A progressive
acceleration and a moderate speed will help you maneuver the scooter more easily.
• Press the power button. Make
sure the scooter battery is sufficiently
charged to power the scooter for the
desired ride.
• Stand with one foot on the
scooter and the other one on the
ground.
• With your right thumb, gently
press the acceleration lever and the
scooter will immediately move forward
slowly. Now you can place the foot that
was on the ground on the scooter.
• When accelerating, keep in
mind that the harder you press the ac-
celeration lever, the faster the scooter
will go.

Braking instructions
Electromagnetic brake: Press the electromagnetic brake lever with the left thumb to
activate the electromagnetic brake. The harder you press, the stronger the braking
force will be. When you activate the brake, the rear stop light will turn on. If the lights
are already on, the rear stop light will double its luminous intensity when you push
the brake lever.
Rear mechanical brake:
Press the rear fender to activate the rear mechanical brake.
WARNING!
When braking rapidly, you risk serious injuries as you will lose traction and you might
fall. Try to maintain a moderate speed and be on the lookout for potential hazards
Speed limitations (5 speed limits - - L1, L2, L3, L4, L5)
To activate or deactivate a speed limit, see the Menu for speed limit section in the
OPERATION chapter.
The legislation of most countries poses a speed limitation. By using the speed limita-
tion option, once you set a limit, the scooter will not be able to exceed the set speed.
To slow down, release the accelera-
tion lever. Press the electromagnetic
brake lever for normal braking situa-
tions. If you need to make an emer-
gency brake, if you have a high speed
or if you are riding downhill, use both
the electromagnetic brake and the
rear mechanical brake.
To turn the scooter, shift the body
weight and gently turn the handlebar
in the desired direction.
