II. BEFORE STARTING YOUR TRIP
Know the capabilities of your smartGyro Avanza. We recommend that you perform a safety
check before each use to ensure that your SmartGyro Avanza runs smoothly and safely.
Perform the following inspections before using your scooter:
— Check all electrical connections. Make sure the cables are tight and not corroded.
— Check the brakes.
— Check the battery charge.
If you discover a problem, contact your authorized provider for help.
LIMITATIONS OF WEIGHT
Your scooter is rated for a maximum weight capacity. See the Table of specifications at the
beginning of the chapter for information.
RAISE HIGH GROUNDS
More and more buildings have ramps with degrees of inclination designed for easy and safe
access. Some ramps can have 180 degree turns that require you to know your scooter.
— Proceed with extreme caution when approaching the access ramp or other slope.
— Make large turns with your scooter around the corners. If it does, the rear wheels of the
scooter will follow a wide arc, will not cut the corner and may have a clean trajectory.
— When going down a ramp, keep a low speed to ensure a controlled descent safely.
¡REQUIRED! Stay within the specified weight capacity for your scooter.
Overcoming the capacity of weight cancels your guarantee in case of
any problem. We are not responsible for misuse of the Avanza Smartgyro
for a weight that exceeds the maximum allowed.
Do not carry passengers on your scooter. Carrying passengers on your
scooter can affect the center of gravity and increase the risk of collisions
and rollovers.
— Avoid sudden stops and starts. When climbing on a slope, try to keep your SmartGyro
Avanza moving. If you must stop, restart slowly and then accelerate with caution. To do
this, place the accelerator in the slowest position. If your SmartGyro Avanza begins to
lower the tilt faster than you want, let it stop completely by releasing the throttle control
lever. Then push the throttle control lever slightly forward to ensure a controlled descent
safely.
When climbing an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle. Drive your SmartGyro Go strai-
ght to the slope. This greatly reduces the possibility of a fall. Be very careful when climbing
a steep slope.
WARNING!
Do not move up or down a potentially dangerous slope (areas covered with
snow, ice, cut grass, or leaves with moisture). Although your SmartGyro Avanza is capable
of scaling slopes greater than those illustrated in Image 1, under no circumstances should
you exceed the tilt guidelines or any other specification presented in this manual. Doing so
could cause instability in your SmartGyro Avanza.
The public access ramps for the disabled are not subject to government regulation in all
countries and therefore do not necessarily share the same standard percentage of slope.
Other inclinations can be natural or not designed specifically for these electric vehicles. Ima-
ge 1 illustrates the stability of your SmartGyro Avanza and its ability to scale degrees under
various weight loads and under controlled test conditions.
These tests were performed with the SmartGyro Avanza seat in the highest position and
were adjusted backwards in the base of the seat to its furthest position. Use this information
as a guide. The ability of your SmartGyro Avanza to climb slopes is affected by its weight,
speed and its angle of approach to the inclination.
In any type of incline or slope, never accelerate your SmartGyro Move
sharply while sitting on it.
Do not drive your SmartGyro Advances parallel or diagonally on a slope;
Do not stop if possible, while ascending or descending a slope.
