ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
This is the most significant advancement in mobility scooter safety
ever designed and has dramatically reduced accidents due to
operator misuse. Turning corners at excessive speed has always
been one of
the most common causes of accidents but with clever engineering
and sophisticated electronics we have all but eliminated this problem.
The speed of the SupaLite is now electronically governed in direct
proportion to the rotation of the handle bars, virtually eliminating any
possibility of over speeding when turning. With the handle bars at
maximum rotation and the throttle at maximum speed the scooter will
turn at a very low speed with complete safety. No other scooter can
provide this level of safety.
Some situations may require maximum power to be used when
turning and we have allowed for this with a handlebar mounted push
button which will disable the ESC for 20 seconds if needed. (Push
button for one second)
Keep fingers and clothing
away from the Electronic
Stability Control sensor.
This vital piece of equipment
is very sensitive and could be
damaged, or could cause
damage, if tampered with.
Warning.
If the ESC is disconnected
or faulty, the scooter will continue to
function normally but the speed will
not reduce when turning.
