C. WET WEATHER RIDING
CAUTION:Wet weather impairs traction, braking and visibility, both for the scooter rider and for other
vehicles sharing the road.The risk of accident is dramatically increased in wet conditions. AVOID RID-
ING IN WET WEATHER WHENEVER POSSIBLE.
Under wet conditions, the stopping power of your brakes (as well as the brakes of other vehicles sharing the road) is dramatically
reduced and your tires don't grip nearly as well.This makes it harder to control speed and easier to lose control.To make sure
that you can slow down and stop safely in wet conditions, ride more slowly and apply your brakes earlier and more gradually
than you would under normal, dry conditions.
CAUTION: Like any sport, riding a scooter involves risk of injury and damage. By choosing to ride
scooter, you assume the responsibility for that risk. By riding this scooter you accept the legal
responsibility associated with personal injury and property damage.
WARNING: It is recommended (and your local law may require it) that the vehicle operator wear
a helmet, kneepads, elbow pads and wrist guards when riding this vehicle.
IMPORTANT REMINDER:Your scooter is designed with a safety push-to-start feature.To prevent
false starts, you must manually push-off to a speed of about 3 mph before the throttle will power
the scooter.The Thumb-Action Speed Control activates the motor only when the scooter is in motion.
