6.2 Braking
To stop the Scooter simply release the Wig-Wag or side control
lever, whilst keeping your hands on the handlebar. Two types
of braking will automatically operate in sequence:
• Automatic regenerative braking, which slows the Scooter to
a standstill.
• Automatic parking brake which will operate as the scooter
comes to a stop. The automatic parking break holds the
Scooter in position, even if you are on a hill.
NOTE:
This is a two-stage process and is not instantaneous.
First the scooter slows down and stops, then the parking
brake comes on. When starting off again the parking brake will
release automatically. If the throttle is momentarily engaged
and released, the parking break will release and then engage
again in approximately 1/2 a wheel turn.
When stopping the high visibility rear LED braking lights will
illuminate. These also function when the scooter lights are
turned on.
6.2.1 Emergency Braking using the Hand brake
In the unlikely event of an unwanted movement of the
Scooter, use the Parking Braking System (PBS) hand brake.
The Parking Braking System (PBS) is operated by pulling the
hand brake lever on the tiller, this will slow the scooter to a
controlled stop.

The hand brake automatically stops the drive unit by way of an
electrical connection. Releasing the hand brake lever will allow
the drive unit to function again.
NOTE:
The scooter will not drive with the handbrake applied.
6.2.2 Emergency Braking using the keyswitch
In the unlikely event of an unwanted movement of the
Scooter, turning the keyswitch OFF will cause the scooter to a
come to an immediate stop.
Though very effective, emergency
braking is extremely abrupt and must never be used in normal
use.
