Riding Safety Guidelines
•Always use a seatbelt, and keep your feet on the scooter all the time.
•Never ride with more than one person.
•Ride predictably and in a straight line. Never ride against traffic.
•Use the signal lights to indicate turning or stopping.
•Ride defensively. To other road users, you may be hard to see.
•Concentrate on the path ahead. Avoid potholes, gravel and dirt, wet
road, oil, curbs, speed bumps, drain grates and other obstacles.
•Be alert for unexpected events, such as opening car doors or cars
backing out of concealed driveways.
•Be extra careful at intersections and when preparing to pass other
vehicles.
•Familiarize yourself with all the bike's features. Practice signal lights,
braking and use of the horn.
•Don't carry packages that will interfere with your visibility or control of
the scooter.
•Don't use items that may restrict your hearing.
•Maintain a comfortable stopping distance from all other riders, vehicles
and objects. Safe braking distance and forces are subject to the
prevailing weather and road conditions.
•Your scooter works best on level ground. Use caution while going down
an incline, such as a hill or a ramp.
•The scooter has an electrical brake cutoff system. When you engage
either brake, the throttle becomes inoperative. Release the throttle
before braking. Do not "ride" the brakes.
•The CM SERIES 3 AND 4 has a speed control dial to regulate the speed
output. The rider can turn it from low to high and set it anywhere in
between. On the first ride, set the knob to its slowest position until the
rider feels comfortable and safe.
This a fast and powerful scooter that is capable of bringing the front
wheel up and off the ground if not careful. Having the seat slid completely
back as well as the speed control dial at its highest adjustment, increases
its ability to "Pop a Wheelie " when the throttle is engaged. Use caution!
