sponsible insurance.

CE regulations

☞

Note:

This vehicle corresponds to the re-

spective demands of the EC-direc-

tive 93/42 EWG.

However, the possibility of interfer-

ence from high-frequency radiation

from other electrical equipment can-

not be excluded.

High-frequency radiation exists in the

proximity of, for example, radar and

broadcasting stations, all types of ra-

dio sets and radio telephones. Stop

the SCOOTER and switch it off imme-

diately if it reacts in an uncontrolled

manner or causes interference to oth-

er electronic devices.

☞ Note:

The SCOOTER can disturb highly

sensitive, electromagnetic ﬁ elds of

other electronic devices, as for ex-

ample antitheft devices in stores.

The connection of other electrical de-

vices can also cause malfunctions.

HANDLING THE SCOOT-

Caution:

Observe the safety information <

Electronic wheelchairs >!

Speciﬁ cations

The SCOOTER is an environment-

friendly electric vehicle. It was de-

veloped to extend the mobility of

persons with health-related or age-re-

lated restrictions.

☞ The SCOOTER fulﬁ ls the < demands

of handicapped people > accord-

ing to EN 614-1.

Use

The SCOOTER is especially suited for

use in spacious indoor areas.

It serves exclusively for the convey-

ance of a sitting person.

High-frequency radiation

▲ Mobile telephones should be

switched off during the use of the

electric vehicle. – A mobile tel-

ephone also transmits in standby

mode, i.e. during the periods be-

tween calls.

☞ A mobile telephone also transmits

in standby mode, i.e. during the

periods between calls.

Functional checks

The functions and safety of the

SCOOTER must be checked before the

start of each journey.

☞ Hereto observe chapter < Pre-op-

eration checks >.

Tips for accident prevention

First driving exercises

A reduced maximum speed must be

pre-selected on the control panel for

the initial driving practice. Make your-

self familiar with the driving behaviour

of the SCOOTER in small steps. The

SCOOTER should only then be used

outside of your familiar surroundings

when it is fully under control.

▲ Carry out a brief braking and steer-

ing test at a – very low speed – af-

ter the initial movement.

▲ Approach and overcome obstacles

slowly and at a right angle (1).

Caution:

Observe the safety information <

Electronic wheelchairs >!

Safety information

▲ Curves and slopes are to driven on

with adequate speed.

▲ Danger of tilting in curves!

▲ Do not drive on higher inclinations

and slopes than noted in the tech-

nical data.

▲ There is a danger of tilting over

when braking during reverse

downhill rides!

▲ The support castors may touch

ground while driving down ob-

stacles such as curbs and therefore

the drive wheels may loose surface

contact. The SCOOTER is no longer

manoeuvrable!

▲ Do not pull out the drive key while

driving. This will switch off the

SCOOTER and cause it to stop im-

mediately.

▲ Do not drive with the steering col-

umn locked!

▲ The attachment/detachment of ac-

cessories/components can alter the

driving behaviour.

▲ Temperature inﬂ uences through

lamps, sun or other sources of

warmth can damage the uphol-

stery parts, handgrips and panel-

ling or heat them up so much that

it may lead to scorching when they

come in contact with bare skin.

– Protect bare and heat sensitive

skin accordingly.

▲ Do not expose the SCOOTER to ex-

treme weather conditions.

Locking the SCOOTER

Pull out the driving key to prevent an

unauthorised use of the SCOOTER.

Drive-/push mode

☞

Note:

☞ Switch the SCOOTER into the push

mode only for manoeuvring on a

level surface.

Selecting the push mode

First bring the drive key into the driv-

ing key position OFF by pulling it off.

☞ The SCOOTER is now switched off.

– Push the selection lever toward

the back (1) to activate the push

mode.

Selecting the motor mode

For the driving mode the selection le-

ver must have locked into place.

– Push the selection lever toward

the front (2) to switch to driving

mode.

Afterwards insert the drive key as far

as possible into the drive key socket.

This engages the driving operation.

☞ The SCOOTER is now ready for

driving.

Caution:

Do not switch the selection lever to

push mode while driving!

Selecting the operation

Caution:

The functions and safety of the

SCOOTER must be checked before

the start of each journey.

Before ﬁ rst operation the batteries

should be charged through the charg-

ing socket (1).

☞ Therefore observe chapter < Charg-

ing batteries >.

Caution:

Only exit or enter the seat of the

SCOOTER’s, when the selection le-

ver is set to driving mode and the

driving key is pulled out.

– An unintentional movement of

the accelerator lever can cause an

uncontrolled movement of the

SCOOTER!

– Danger of accident!

• Do not insert objects, other than

the driving key, resp. the battery

charging plug into the correspond-

ing sockets.

– Danger of short circuit!

Adjusting the steering column

Loosen the hand wheel (1) to adjust

the steering column.

Caution:

Hold onto the steering column

with one hand at the handle bar in

order to prevent it from uninten-

tionally swivelling down.

– Danger of injury!

Retighten the hand wheel (1) when

the desired position of the steering

column is reached.

☞ The toothing grips ﬁ rmly through

slight movements of the steering

column during tightening.

Caution:

Check the secure ﬁ t of the steering

column locking device (1).

Opening the steering column lock

To disengage the steering column lock

press down the lever (2).

Switching on the SCOOTER

For activation insert the drive key (3)

into the drive key socket.

When the SCOOTER is ready for op-

eration the display for operational

readiness (4) lights up.

☞ Hereto observe chapter < Control

panel >.

☞ Note:

Do not move the acceleration lever

(1) during the activation phase of

about one second.

– The electronic is ready for opera-

tion when the indicator gauge for

operational readiness (4) lights up

constantly.

Battery charge condition

The battery indicator (2) displays the

battery charge condition after the

switch-on.

☞ Note:

The value shown depends on the

ambient temperature, the age of

the battery and the type of load. It

should therefore only be taken as

an approximate value.

▲ If the indicator gauge for opera-

tional readiness (status) blinks

slowly the batteries should be

charged.

▲ If the indicator gauge for opera-

tional readiness (status) blinks rap-

idly there is a failure.

☞ View chapter < Maintenance >

paragraph < Fault clearance >.

Recharging batteries

The batteries should be charged im-

mediately after the daily use of the

SCOOTER in order to have the full

driving distance available on the next

day.

Every battery has a normal "self-dis-

charge". The batteries should be

recharged once a month when the

SCOOTER is not used for a long pe-

riod of time. This keeps the SCOOTER

ready for use.

Batteries should only be charged with

a battery charger that is suitable for

the type and rating of the batteries.

The guarantee is only preserved to

its full extent when battery chargers

supplied and recommended by us are

used.

▲ Observe the safety information <

Electronic wheelchairs >!

▲ Avoid spark build up through elec-

trical static (for example caused by

synthetic ﬂ oor covers).

▲ Observe the contents of the op-

erating manual for the battery

charger.

Charging procedure

To charge the batteries, ﬁ rst switch

off the SCOOTER and then plug the

battery charger plug into the battery

charging socket (1).

Afterwards plug the mains plug of the

battery charger into a corresponding

outlet. The charging process is now

started.

☞ Note:

Also observe the information in

the < Batteries > section and the

operating manual for the battery

charger.

Caution:

Do not insert anything other than

the battery charger plug into the

battery charging socket.

– Danger of short circuit!

It is best to charge the battery over-

night. A full charging of the batteries

takes approximately 8 hours.

☞ Note:

After the charging has been com-

pleted ﬁ rst separate the battery

charger from the power supply and

afterward pull the battery charg-

ing plug from the charging socket.

Pre-operation checks

☞

Also view chapter < Maintenance

instructions >.

After the SCOOTER has been switched

on, the battery indicator (1) displays

the battery charge condition after the

system test phase has ended.

Battery capacity

The needle of the battery gauge

moves left to the beginning of the

red display when the battery capacity

lessens.

Battery display

The battery indicator (1) displays the

available battery capacity as follows:

The colours of the display have the

following meaning:

green = regular operating area

yellow = Begin of the reserve sector

– Recharging necessary

red = Reserve sector of the batteries

exhausted

– recharge immediately

With totally depleted batteries the

indicator gauge for operational readi-

ness (status) blinks.

– Recharge batteries immediately in

order to avoid a possible battery dam-

age.

Depending on the type of error the

battery control light blinks at differ-

ent intervals.

☞ View chapter < Maintenance >

paragraph < Fault clearance >.

☞ Note:

A sufﬁ ciently exact capacity display

is only possible while driving on

level surfaces.

– Uphill/downhill travel falsiﬁ es

the indication.

Evaluation

The value shown depends on the sur-

rounding temperature, the age of

the battery as well as the strain and is

therefore to be regarded with limita-

tions.

The kilometric performance of the

SCOOTER respectively the batteries,

should be tested at least once.
