Slopes and other obstacles
Warning
Avoid slopes with a gradient greater than 6°.
Driving on slopes (forwards or in reverse) is always
dangerous.
You must never free wheel down a slope.
Drive carefully along (pavement) edges. An uneven
surface increases the risk of overturning.
Attention
Your centre of gravity moves when you drive up or
down a slope. Please beware.
Turn around carefully on a steep slope as there is a
greater risk of overturning.
Always mount and leave a pavement in a forward,
straight line. Accelerate very gently. It is better to
mount the pavement using a curb cut.
The maximum bump height you can drive over is
10 cm.
Soft, slippery or uneven surfaces increase the risk
of a dangerous situation.
Avoid prolonged driving on inclines <10º, This can
cause excessive wear on the engine and electrical
components.
Transporting the mobility scooter without a driver
(see also the chapter ‘Transport and storage’)
Extremely dangerous
When transporting the mobility scooter in a motor
vehicle, always make sure you are seated in a
fixed seat of the motor vehicle. Mobility scooters
may never be used as seating support in a motor
vehicle, even if the mobility scooter is secured with
a taxi restraint system.
Warning
Make sure that your fingers do not get trapped
when folding down the mobility scooter.
