TURNING
In the United States, bicyclists are required to use hand signals to alert surrounding traffic of their
intention to turn or change lanes. Your Pushpak is equipped with left and right turn signals which may be
used in place of hand signals for this purpose. If you opt not to use the turn signals, you must instead use
proper hand signals.
a. No Signal – The turn signal switch should be in the center OFF position when not in use.
b. Left Turn/Lane Change – Before making a left turn or lane change, move the turn signal switch to the
left. The front and rear left turn lights will blink, and a beeping sound will be audible. Move the turn
signal switch back to the OFF position once you have completed your turn or lane change.
c. Right Turn/Lane Change – Before making a right turn or lane change, move the turn signal switch to
the right. The front and rear right turn lights will blink, and a beeping sound will be audible. Move the
turn signal switch back to the OFF position once you have completed your turn or lane change.
CAUTION
Avoid taking turns sharply and at high speed. This can result in tipping the Pushpak.
VI. SLOWING DOWN/BRAKING
In the United States, bicyclists are required to use a hand signal to alert surrounding traffic of their
intention to slow down or
Stop. Your Pushpak is equipped with rear braking lights, which activate when you engage either hand
brake or which may be used in place of the hand signal. If the rear braking lights are not functional, you
should have the Pushpak serviced immediately for repair. The proper hand signal must be used if riding
the Pushpak without rear braking lights.
a. Braking: Release the throttle and squeeze both the front and rear hand brakes with equal pressure
until the Pushpak comes to a complete stop.
b. Slow Down: Release the throttle and squeeze both the front and rear hand brakes with enough
equal pressure to slow the Pushpak down to the desired speed.
