Towing loads of any kind (e.g. trailers) is forbidden.
Do not attach any bags to the handlebars as this can have a significant impact on the steering.
Before using the CARVY, always check that all cables, handles, switches are in perfect condition.
Check if all screws are well tightened, check if the wheels have enough air and check all visible parts
for defects or damages.
Do not use the CARVY if there are any signs of damage. If you find any damage, please take your
CARVY to a specialized mechanic.
Do not dismantle any fittings, covers, electronic parts or other components on the CARVY, and only
use original parts for replacement or repairs.
Check the brakes before every use and make sure that they are working (make a brake test before each
use!). The front wheel brakes must be working smooth and not too abrupt. If the front brake is adjusted
too tight, it could cause the front wheel to block, which could lead to an accident.
If the brakes are not working properly, please take the CARVY to the closest specialized mechanic. Do
NOT do repairs yourself.
Doing repairs by yourself will expire the given warranty of the whole scooter and claims won´t be
accepted by our company.
Only use the motor and the CARVY when it has been unfolded and secured (make sure that the folding
system is locked properly and the quick release of the handle bars´ height adjustment is closed
strongly.).
When parking the CARVY, always switch it off and ensure that it cannot roll away.
Always make sure to hold the handlebars with both hands when starting to roll, moving and
accelerating.
Avoid to hit the brakes abruptly as it could result to block the front wheel (danger of falling
during full speed).
Do not accelerate to full speed when driving curves (danger of falling!).
When you accelerate, lean slightly forwards to avoid the acceleration throwing you backwards, which
could cause the front wheel of the CARVY to lift off the ground.
When transporting the CARVY in the car, make sure that it is stowed safely.
As with all vehicles, riding is more dangerous on wet, icy, snowy, dirty and uneven surfaces. Always
adapt your riding behavior to the conditions (traffic conditions, bad weather, visibility).
For the best visibility and your own safety always switch on the lights (front and rear LED).
The CARVY should not be used for riding over curbstones, steps, obstacles (stones, thresholds, etc.),
potholes, through mud or off-road.
If the CARVY is not working properly, or making unusual noises (such as squeaking, grating, rattling,
etc.), get off immediately, switch the CARVY off, look for the cause of the problem or contact your
closest CARVY specialist, dealer or mechanic.
There is a danger of items or fingers getting pinched between the moving parts of the folding system,
particularly when the steering column is being folded up and down.
Parts close to the motor can remain hot after use (danger of burning).
The brakes and brake drums can become hot after use, specially after a downhill stretch. Do not touch
them, due to the risk of getting burnt.
The CARVY (and battery) should be stored in a suitable place (free from damp and heat). The battery
should not be exposed to direct sunlight.
