Kerbs and Obstacles: Do not ride up kerbs or obstructions higher than 3” (75mm).
On inclines lean forward. This places more weight over the front making the
vehicle more stable.
Hills & Slopes:
Lean forward when climbing.
Make sure you have enough speed
to make the slope.
Do
not stop or turn the vehicle around
. If you have to turn
while climbing an incline keep going until you reach a level area. If you have to
start on an incline lean forward and apply power slowly – do not start and stop.
Always check the battery level is high. If the level drops too low the vehicle will
cut-out leaving you stranded.
Lean back when going downhill
, turn the speed control dial to low.
Do not drive across a slope at an angle – always drive straight up and down the
slope.
NEVER BACK DOWN A SLOPE!
Turning: Slow down and look in the direction you are travelling – If it’s a blind
corner sound the horn.
Bad Weather: If it’s snowing or icy remember that ice, snow and slippery surfaces
such as manhole covers, wet grass and drains could affect braking and steering.
Use caution at all times.
In a crowded area: Drive with caution – never drive at 8 mph (Quingo Plus/Sport)
on a paved area such as a shopping area, pavement or car park. Make sure
persons, pets are aware of you – remember they cannot hear you coming!
