carefully maneuver the scooter.

contacting E-Wheels. E-Wheels offer a wide variety of accessories for your scooter to help accommodate

your needs.

cautiously. If the scooter is traveling down the incline faster than you expected, slowly release the

throttle and apply the hand brake, then slightly push the throttle forward to continue safely down the

incline.

WARNING –Drive your scooter straight up or down an incline, never backwards. Erratic movements, or

back and forth patterns may increase the chance of tipping.

loose sand, fresh water, salt water, edges of streams, lakes or oceans. If you are unsure about a surface,

avoid it.

weather while operating your scooter, proceed to the closest shelter immediately. Completely dry your

scooter before operating, charging, or storing.
