4. Re-tighten the 10mm fixing bolt. Refit the seat onto

your

bootie

Warning:

Do not have the seat set too high, you must

be able to place both feet firmly on the Scooter's floor

area. Stability will be reduced the higher your seat is

set on the mounting tube. Always take great care

when cornering, lean into the corner to achieve the

best stability from your Scooter.

HANDLEBAR ADJUSTMENT

The handlebar of your

bootie

is designed to allow you to

position it in a comfortable driving position. It can be locked

into numberous positions or unlocked to move freely for

transportation.

The handlebar lock is operated by a black lever positioned

on the right hand side of the handlebar (see Fig 6, page 8).

To release the handlebar from a locked position pull the black

lever upwards, the handlebar will now move freely, but under

mild tension.

To lock the handlebar into a comfortable driving position,

simply push the black lever downwards until the handlebar is

locked firmly into position.

With the combination of the height adjustment together with

the handlebar movement, you should find a suitably

comfortable driving position.

Warning :

Always make certain the handlebar locking lever is

fully down and the handlebar is securely clamped onto the

chrome support plates before driving your Scooter. To make

service adjustment of this part, refer to the Care and

Maintenance section of this manual.

CONTROL FEATURES

Your controls are located on the handlebar console (see Fig 7)

they are :

Speed Adjustment Dial:

This allows you to pre-select your

desired top speed. The dial is proportional to speed and

can be set anywhere between minimum ('min') and

maximum ('max') increments. Turn the dial knob

anticlockwise to minimum for a very gentle operation, and

clockwise towards maximum to increase your speed.

NOTE:

When attempting to climb obstacles, you will need

to set the dial to a high setting. Remember the higher

position you set your speed dial to, the faster your Scooter

will travel.

Horn Buttons:

(yellow). Sounds a polite warning signal.

On-Off Power Switch:

Located at the lower right side of

the control console. Insert the key and turn clockwise. You

will note after a second the needle on the battery state

indicator moves towards the green sector and the green

status light illuminates. Your

bootie

is now ready to drive.

To switch off your machine turn the key anticlockwise.

Remove the key when your vehicle is left unattended. Do

not attach heavy additional keys to your key ring, the weight

can damage the switch unit.

switch to 'off' when your

bootie

is moving.

Failure to observe this warning will result in the motor brake

being applied suddenly and placing you in a dangerous

situation.

You should only switch 'off' when in motion in the case of

an emergency. Continual use in this mode may cause undue

stress to the drive system and damage the main electronic

speed control unit.

Be extremely cautious on slopes. Sit upright in your seat or

your machine could become less stable.

Sleep Time:

When you rest your

switched 'on' you are using valuable battery power. Our

will automatically go into a sleep mode to preserve battery

energy after approximately 15 minutes, the battery indicator

and green status light goes off. To start your Scooter again

simply switch the key switch to 'off' and back to 'on' again,

your Scooter is now ready to go.

Status Light:

When you turn your

light on your console will illuminate at a constant rate.

The status light is connected to a very sophisticated

diagnostic system which can identify faults which could

occur on the main speed control system or some other

part of your Scooter's electronic drive system. For instance

if your batteries run low in power, the status light will flash

slowly at one flash a second; this indicates your batteries

need recharging.

If you notice the status light flashing at two flashes per

second, you are being notified that the battery voltage is too

low and you must stop using your Scooter at the earliest

opportunity. Your status light has nine similar flashing

diagnostic signals, reference to these diagnostic codes is

found under 'Fault Finding' at the rear of this manual.

the gauge will move across the scale from the left 'red'

sector towards the 'green' sector, indicating the state of

charge in your batteries. As the power is used up in your

batteries the needle will move towards the red sector

indicating the state of charge at that precise time. When the

needle is fully over to the right (green sector), the batteries

are fully charged. When the needle falls towards the red

sector your batteries are losing power, but you will still have

power to spare. When the needle falls into the red sector

your batteries are low in power and need to be re-charged,

although you will still have approximately half-an-hours

normal flat pavement driving in reserve. It is not

recommended to use this power regularly as it will shorten

battery life. It is wise to re-charge your batteries when the

needle enters the red zone (see Batteries and Battery

Charging section of this manual).
