Safety Considerations – Electromagnetic Interference:
This vehicle has an immunity level of 20 V/m which should protect it from
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) from Radio Wave Sources. The rapid
development of electronics, especially in the area of communications, has
saturated our environment with electromagnetic (radio) waves that are
emitted by television, radio and communication signals. These EM waves
are invisible and their strength increases as one approaches the source. All
electrical conductors act as antennas to the EM signals and, to varying
degrees, all power wheelchairs and scooters are susceptible to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). This interference could result in
abnormal, unintentional movement and/or erratic control of the vehicle.
This following statement shall be incorporated to the user's manual for all
electric vehicles:
Powered wheelchairs and electric scooters may be susceptible to
electromagnetic interference (EMI), which is interfering electromagnetic
energy emitted from sources such as radio stations, TV stations, amateur
radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios and cellular phones. The
interference (from radio wave sources) can cause the vehicle to release its
brakes, move by itself or move in unintended directions. It can also
permanently damage the vehicle’s control system. The intensity of the EM
energy can be measured in volts per meter (V/m). Each vehicle can resist
EMI up to a certain intensity level. This is called the "immunity level." The
higher the immunity level, the greater the protection. At this time, current
technology is capable of providing at least 20 V/m of immunity level which
would provide useful protection against common sources of radiated EMI.
Following the warnings listed below should reduce the chance of
unintended brake release or vehicle movement that could result in serious
injury:
1. Do not turn on hand-held personal communication devices such as
citizens band (CB) radios and cellular phones while the powered
wheelchair is turned on.
2. Be aware of nearby transmitters such as radio or TV stations and try
to avoid coming close to them.
3. If unintended movement or brake release occurs, turn the vehicle off
as soon as it is safe.
4. Be aware that adding accessories or components, or modifying the
vehicle, may make it more susceptible to interference from radio
wave sources. (NOTE: There is no easy way to evaluate their effect
on overall immunity of the vehicle.)
Rascal 600B/700B Owner’s Manual
EMC Part: 19278100 Rev. 3 ◦ 06/29/2009
7
5. Report all incidents of unintended movement or brake release to the
vehicle manufacturer, and note whether there is a radio wave source
nearby.
TURN OFF YOUR VEHICLE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE WHEN
EXPERIENCING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:
1. Unintended motions or movement!
2. Unintended or uncontrollable direction!
3. Unexpected brake release!
The FDA requires the manufacturers of power wheelchairs and electric
scooters to test their products to be sure they provide a reasonable degree
of immunity against exposure to unexpected radio waves (EMI). Vehicles
are required to have an immunity level of at least 20 V/m, which provides
a reasonable degree of protection against common sources of EMI. This
vehicle has been tested to meet or exceed the requirements for power
wheelchairs or scooters.

Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the charge level of your batteries. If the needle
goes into the red area, the batteries need to be charged as soon as
possible. If the needle is all the way to the right side of the green area, the
batteries are fully charged. As the needle moves to the red area it indicates
the level of charge remaining in the batteries.
Status Lamp
A green LED lamp indicates that power is available and serves as a
trouble-shooting indicator when faults or errors are detected (see
“Controller Troubleshooting” on page 34).
Clock
For convenience, the dash includes an analog clock displaying the current
time of day. The clock may be set or adjusted by removing the casing from
the dash and using the stem to change time settings. The clock is powered
by a separate battery and does not require the vehicle to be turned on to
operate.

Dial-A-Speed Control
The Dial-A-Speed knob regulates the maximum speed of the scooter. Start
at the slowest speed (settings: 0, 1) until you feel confident with
controlling your scooter. Turning the speed dial counterclockwise (towards
“1”) decreases speed. Turning it clockwise (towards “10”) increases
speed. Use slower speeds when first driving your scooter to help avoid
accidents.
Engager Lever
The operating speed of your vehicle is proportional to the amount you
squeeze the engager lever. Smooth starts and stops can be accomplished
by gradually moving the engager lever (similar to a gas pedal in an
automobile). Squeeze the engager lever on the right side to move forward.
Or squeeze the engager lever on the left side to move in reverse.
NOTE: If you prefer to have your engager lever configured to move forward
from the left side (left-hand controls) please contact Customer Service or
your Authorized Service Center.

Initial Set Up and Adjustments
Before using your Rascal scooter, you should perform the following initial
setup and adjustments to ensure that you are as comfortable as possible.
The setup and adjustments include:
• Charging the Battery
• Adjusting the Seat/Armrests
• Adjusting the Handlebar Assembly and Dash Position
• Setting the Dashboard Clock
Charging Batteries
Because your batteries may only have a partial charge when you first
receive your scooter, you may not experience full riding time until you
have fully charged them. Your scooter is equipped with an onboard battery
charger. Charging your batteries as specified will ensure maximum life,
power, and range. It is recommended that you charge your batteries as
follows:
• Upon initial receipt of your scooter.
• After daily use, regardless of battery level.
• For 8 - 10 hours (overnight) after extended use during the day.
• If the fuel gauge indicator should go into the red area while operating
your vehicle, the batteries need to be recharged as soon as possible.
• The battery’s life expectancy may be shortened if they are left fully
discharged for more than 24 hours.
Use the following to charge batteries of your Rascal scooter.
1. Park the vehicle near a 3-Prong Grounded Electrical Receptacle.
2. Lift the trunk lid and remove the power cord from the trunk area.
Plug power cord into a 3-Prong Grounded Electrical Receptacle.
3. Check that the needle of the ammeter (Illustration 3) in the trunk
area registers greater than 1 to ensure that vehicle is in charge
mode. If batteries are fully charged, the needle on the ammeter
will remain at 0, as shown in Illustration 3. The needle on the
Fuel Gauge on the dash in the green area indicating a full charge
(and no charging is required).

3. Lift folding armrests up and out of your way for added room to transfer.
Once seated on the vehicle it is important that the rider check the
following items before operating the vehicle.
• The Seat is locked into the forward position.
• The Scooter Dash is pulled down into riding position.
• The Folding armrests are down and in the riding position.
Driving
Once seated on your Rascal scooter, driving is simple. Set Dial-a-Speed
Knob to desired speed range. Use the Engager Lever to move forward
(squeeze right side) or reverse (squeeze left side). Steer in the desired
direction. Before driving, however, you should confirm the following:
• Green Status Lamp is “ON” and not flashing
• Key is in “ON” position.
Braking System
Whenever the engager lever is moved out of the neutral position, the
electromagnetic brake will automatically release and your scooter will
move. When the speed engager lever is released, it will return to the
neutral position and the scooter will decelerate with regenerative braking
and come to a complete stop. The parking brake will then engage
preventing further movement of your scooter. If your scooter ever moves
in an unexpected manner, release the speed engager lever. Once the
scooter has come to a complete stop, turn off the power. Your unit is
equipped with a controller that has a high pedal disable safety feature.
This will prevent unexpected acceleration of the scooter, if the speed
engager lever is activated at the same time you turn the key ON. To reset
the controller, release the speed engager lever and turn the key OFF, then
turn it back ON.
Safety Feature
There is a time delay between the release of the engager lever and when
the parking brake automatically activates. This delay allows your vehicle to
gradually slow down before the parking brake activates so you will come
to a smooth stop.

Speed Settings
The top forward/reverse speed of the vehicle is set by the Dial-A-Speed
knob on the dash. Lower settings, 1, 2 (indicated by the turtle symbol)
result in slower speeds. Higher settings 9-10 (indicated by the rabbit
symbol) provide faster speeds. When first operating your vehicle, select
slower settings to operate the unit until you feel comfortable.
Freewheel Operation
The scooter features a “freewheel” mode to allow it to be pushed manually
(push operation). To activate manually, turn the key switch OFF and locate
the brake release lever under the rear cover on the right side. Push lever
up to disengage the parking brake. Move lever down to engage the parking
brake. When your vehicle is in manual push mode, parking and
regenerative brakes will not operate. The Brake Release lever is shown in
Illustration 11A and 11B.

Transporting your Scooter
WARNING!
By Car
- To transport your disassembled scooter by car, place each of the
components into the trunk, being careful not to scratch or mark any of the
finished surfaces. Make sure the batteries are on a level spot in your trunk.
If you need assistance lifting weights, consider asking Electric Mobility’s
Customer Service Department or your authorized service center about the
Rascal Electric Trunk Lift or other accessories. These devices will assist
you in transporting your scooter by transferring these components in and
out of your trunk with very little effort or carrying the Rascal inside a van
or behind your car. (See “Specifications” for more information on weights).
By Airplane
- To transport your unit on an airplane, we recommend that
you call your airline and notify them at booking or at least 24 hours in
advance to ensure to tell them you are bringing a scooter. Your Rascal
batteries are approved for airline travel. Ask specifically where and with
whom you should drop the unit off and where and with whom you should
retrieve it at your destination.
Remember to bring this manual with you as a reference on your trip. Your
manual will assist you in disassembling and reassembling your unit if
required.
Prior to leaving the airport, remember to test the unit out when first
getting on it. Direct any questions to the airline personnel if the unit does
not work as it did prior to transportation.
If traveling outside of the United States, you may require a different plug
adapter for your charger. Customer Service or your authorized service
center can help you answer these questions and supply you with the
charger or adapter you require.
This scooter
DOES NOT meet the Federal Safety Standards for use as motor
vehicle seating. DO NOT SIT or PERMIT anyone else to sit in the seat of your
scooter during transportation in a motor vehicle as this poses a significant RISK
of BODILY INJURY or even DEATH.

Maintenance and Servicing
This section presents information to keep your scooter in peak operating
condition, including:
• Preventative Maintenance
• Troubleshooting
• Factory Return Procedures
Your Rascal scooter requires only minimal maintenance and by setting
time aside each month for careful inspection and checking items included
in this section, you can be assured of a long, useful life of your vehicle.
Preventative Maintenance
Performing periodic preventative maintenance on your scooter will ensure
long, useful operational life as well as identifying any potential problems
that may occur that might affect safe use and operation of the vehicle.
Maintenance topics are presented in the following sections:
Battery Connections
Your scooter comes supplied with two battery cables. If disconnected,
attach the red wire of the first cable to the (+) terminal of the first battery.
Attach the black wire of the first cable to the (-) terminal of the first
battery. Repeat this procedure for the second battery.
Tire Pressure
NOTE: All Rascal Balance units come equipped with a Foam
Filled Front Tire which do not require inflation.
Check pressure in each rear tire. Tire pressure can be checked at most
service stations. Tire pressure gauges can be purchased at local super
markets, department stores in the automotive section, or at an automotive
parts store.
Maintain the recommended pressure as specified on the tire. If the
pressure is too low, inflate tire with an air pump. If the pressure is too
high, deflate tire by letting some air out of the valve stem. Models
equipped with pneumatic tires have inner tubes that are injected with a
tire sealant that will seal punctures, which may occur when the vehicle is
rolling. In the unusual event your tire does lose air due to a puncture,
rotate the tire at least three times prior to re-inflating tire to
recommended air pressure. If the tire continues to lose air, replace the tire
Rascal 600B/700B Owner’s Manual
EMC Part: 19278100 Rev. 3 ◦ 06/29/2009
37
and sealant-injected inner tube. Replacement tires and inner tubes with
sealant are available from Electric Mobility’s Customer Service Department
or your authorized service center.
Rear Wheel Removal
Remove the center hardware holding wheel onto axle. Pull wheel off axle,
if snug, tap on tire with a rubber mallet while pulling on wheel (spin the
wheel while tapping). Remove separate key. Retain key for later
reassembly.
Re-Assembly Notes: Slide the wheel onto axle, align key with slot in axle.
If snug, tap on wheel lightly with a rubber mallet. Replace the hardware
and tighten securely.
Front Wheel Removal
Using the proper size wrenches on the nut and bolt, remove nut. Hold
wheel and slide the bolt out of fork, being careful not to lose any of the
wheel spacers.
Re-Assembly Notes: Align the wheel in the front fork and slide the bolt
through the fork and the wheel. Replace wheel spacers as required.
Tighten the nut and bolt securely with the proper size wrenches. Check
that the wheel spins freely. If not, loosen the nut (in quarter turn
increments) until the wheel spins freely.
Tire Tread Wear
Measure tire tread depth. If less than 1/32", it is recommended you
replace the tire.
Seat Post Lubrication
The seat should rotate freely. Clean and lubricate the top of the seat post
and the inside of the seat base attached to the seat. Lubricate with
petroleum jelly or other similar lubricant.
Rear Caster Wheels
If the rear caster wheels are badly worn it is recommended that they be
replaced.
Front Stabilizer Wheels and Forks
If the stabilizer wheels or forks are badly worn it is required that they be
replaced to maintain stability when turning.

Hardware Inspection
Check and make sure all fasteners are present and secure. Replace any
missing fasteners and tighten any loose fasteners.
Cleaning Instructions
Wash your scooter with a sponge using household detergent diluted in
warm water to clean all components (i.e., seat, front cover, floor pan, rear
cover, etc.). Wipe excess soapy water from the vehicle using a clean damp
cloth. Avoid getting any water on the electrical components (i.e.,
connectors, switches, battery terminals, etc.).
Polishing
Polish all plastic components to help protect them from scratches and a
dull finish. This can be done by using a non-abrasive auto polishing
material available at your local automotive parts dealer or local
department store (automotive section). Make sure to clean the surface
first with an auto body cleaner using a soft cotton cloth and dry before
polishing. To bring out the shine, follow the manufacturer’s instruction on
the polishing material.
Vehicle Storage
If you will not be using your vehicle for an extended period of time, such
as a month or longer, use the following guidelines to protect the vehicle
and maintain the batteries:
• Store the vehicle in a warm dry place and never leave it unprotected
where it may be subjected to water damage (a cover is available for
added protection).
• Charge the batteries fully before putting it into storage. Do not leave
the batteries on continuous charge.
• Store batteries in a storage location where the temperature is between
5° to 104° F (-15° to 40° C). Do not place batteries near any heat
sources such as transformers, sparks, or open flames.
Note: Recharge the batteries approximately every 30 days to maintain a
full charge on the batteries.
