Owner`s manual
To ride away:
Allow the throttle to return to idle, apply the rear brake, and then remove the
vehicle from the stand.
Get on the vehicle, keeping at least one foot on the ground in order not to lose
balance.
Before driving, be sure that the review mirrors are correctly adjusted.
CAUTION
When the vehicle is new to you, practice looking in the rear view mirrors. Only
experience will allow you to correctly determine the exact location of other vehicles and
objects behind you.
To begin, release the brake lever and accelerate by gently rotating the throttle
grip; the vehicle will start moving.
WARNING
When braking, close the throttle and apply both brakes simultaneously in order to obtain
the best brake performance.
By applying only the front brake or only the rear brake, you reduce the braking efficiency
considerably, and run the risk of locking up one wheel. This can cause an upset and
subsequent injury or even death.
Before entering a turn, slow the motorscooter using the brakes, to a constant speed and
then accelerate slightly through the turn. Avoid braking at the last moment. This can
cause you to lose control of your vehicle.
If the brakes are operating continuously on downhill grades, the disc and pads will
overheat, reducing the brake efficiency. Use the brakes as little as possible to maintain a
safe speed. Never coast downhill with the engine off.
WARNING
On roads that are wet or covered with snow, ice or mud, ride very slowly, avoiding
braking, or accelerating or maneuvering quickly. Hold the handlebar firmly.
Failure to heed these warnings can cause an upset with subsequent serious injury or
death.
Pay very close attention to any obstacles or variations of the road surface. Uneven roads,
rail, manholes covers, painted traffic stripes, traffic dots all become slippery when wet.
Avoid particularly steel plates, which are sometimes used during road maintenance.
They become more slippery than ice once they are wet by rain. If you must ride on such
surfaces, decrease your speed and operate the throttle, brakes, and steering very gently.
