DRIVING   INSTRUCTIONS   

   

   

   

Braking

   

When   you   need   to   brake,   close   the   throttle   grip   and   use   both   front   and   rear   brakes.   Press   the   brake   

levers   smoothly,   gradually   increasing   the   pressure.   

   

   

   

   

   

   

Parking   

1.

 

Switch   on   the   turn   signal   light   in   advance   and   check   for   approaching   vehicles.   

!

    ATTENTION:   

-­‐      When   driving   downhill,   close   the   throttle   grip   and   use   both   brakes   alternatively,   maintaining   a   low   speed.   
-­‐      Do   not   hold   the   brake   levers   while   driving,   as   it   may   cause   abnormal   wear   to   the   brakes.   Also,   it   will   turn   the   
brake   light   on,   affecting   the   drivers   behind   you.   

!

    WARNING:   

-­‐      Avoid   braking   while   turning   as   it   could   cause   the   scooter   to   skid   or   fall.   
-­‐      When   driving   on   a   wet   or   slippery   road   the   braking   distance   is   longer   than   usual.   Reduce   the   driving   speed   
and   brake   in   advance,   or   you   may   lose   balance   and   fall.   

   NOTE:   

-­‐      Applying   only   one   of   the   brakes   (front   or   rear)   results   in   reduced   braking   power.   

!

    WARNING:   

-­‐      Do   not   turn   the   throttle   grip   too   abruptly   to   avoid   falling   off   the   vehicle.
