3. BEFORE RIDING This manual describes the correct usage of this scooter including safety riding, simple inspection methods and so on. For a more comfortable and safety riding, please read this manual carefully. For your benefit, please ask your SANYANG dealer the operating manual and carefully read the following: • Correct use of the scooter. • Pre-delivery inspection and maintenance.

. DRIVING Keep the related parts of your body such as arms, palms, lumbar, and toes relax and ride with the most comfortable posture in order to be able to react quickly whenever it is necessary. • Rider’s posture will greatly affect riding safety. Always keep your body’s gravity in the center of the saddle, if your body’s gravity is on the rear part of saddle, the front wheel load will be reduced, and this will cause the steering handle shaking. It is dangerous to ride a scooter with an unstable handle.
