WARNING! Every scooter is different. Take the
time to learn the feel of your scooter before you
begin driving.
WARNING! BE AWARE that becoming a capable
and safe scooter operator will take time and
practice.

risk of tipping over backwards, which can cause
serious injury.
Please observe the following tips for a safe journey:
1. Always match your speed to the driving situation in
which you find yourself.
2. Always reduce your speed when you are driving
through:
- Unclear areas - narrow gaps
- Tight curves - inclines
- Ramps
3. Take a trial run with the scooter in an area with no
pedestrians, or in a closed-off area.
4. Always steer the scooter with both hands on the
handlebars.
5. Always keep your feet within the foot area while
driving the scooter.
