2 Safety
2.1 Personnel qualification
Repairs may only be carried out by trained and authorised service technicians.
During the execution of their work, they are at all times fully responsible for the fulfilment of locally applicable safety guidelines
and standards.
Temporary employees and persons in training may only carry out repair and replacement work under the supervision of an
authorised service technician.
Warning!
Follow the instructions carefully next to these warning symbols! Not paying careful attention to these instructions could result in
physical injury or damage to the scooter or the environment. Wherever possible, safety information is also provided in this manual
in the relevant chapter.
2.3 Temperature
Warning!
Avoid physical contact with the scooter’s motor. The motor is continuously in motion during use and can reach high temperatures.
After use, the motor will cool down slowly. Physical contact may cause burns.
Ensure that the scooter is not exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods of time. Certain parts of the scooter, such as the
seat, the backrest, the armrests and the steering device become hot if exposed to the sun for too long. This may cause burns or
skin irritation.
Note!
It cannot be excluded that electromagnetic radiation emanating from mobile telephones, medical apparatus and other sources,
may have an influence on the scooter.
It cannot be excluded that the scooter will interfere with the electromagnetic fields of, for example, shop doors, burglar alarm
systems and/or garage door openers.
In the unlikely event that such problems do occur, you are requested to notify your dealer immediately.
Powered wheelchairs and scooters can be affected by sources of radio waves, such as radio and TV transmitters, amateur radio
stations, lifts, transmitting equipment, stereo radios and mobile telephones If the scooter’s electronics are not well shielded,
sensitive electrical devices, such as shop alarm systems and garage door openers, can be affected. The scooter has been tested
for such interference. Please report any problems of this nature to your dealer immediately.
The following advices are intended to prevent the electric scooter from being driven unintentionally, which could lead to serious
injury.
1. Do not turn on any manually controlled equipment for personal communication, such as a radio transmitter or mobile
telephone, while the electric scooter is switched on.
2. Keep at a distance from transmitter equipment, such as radio and TV stations.
3. If the scooter starts making unintended movements, or if the brake goes into freewheel / neutral mode, turn off the powered
wheelchair or scooter by removing the ignition key from the lock.
4. Be aware of the fact that any accessories, components or adaptations installed on the scooter may increase the effect of radio
waves.
Note:
There is no easy way of testing the effects of radio waves on the general immunity of powered wheelchairs or scooters.
5. All cases of unintended movements of the scooter spontaneously going into freewheel / neutral mode should be reported to
your dealer or to the scooter manufacturer. When reporting, please indicate whether a source of radio waves was nearby at
the time.
Replace or repair any markings, symbols or instructions that have become illegible or damaged immediately. Please contact your
dealer for assistance.

List of necessary repairs:
Warning
Pull the charge cable out of the battery charging connection of the scooter before carrying out any maintenance on the scooter.
5.2 Batteries
Always follow the instructions related to battery maintenance & storage as given by the battery manufacturer ( Battery
charger).
The scooter is equipped with gel batteries. These batteries are fully encased and sealed and require no maintenance. A sticker
indicates how the batteries are to be connected. This sticker is located on the rear cover and on the battery cable.
Warning
Ensure that the batteries are always well charged.
Do not use the scooter if the batteries are almost flat. Doing so may damage the batteries and means you run the risk of coming
to an unexpected standstill.
Ensure that the batteries are never completely flat. This can seriously damage the batteries and shorten their lifespan.
Only use gel-batteries
Warning
Once the new batteries have been put in place they will need to be charged and ‘run in’ ( Battery charger)
For the correct way to dispose of batteries see ( Scooter) ‘Used scooters and the environment’
Note!
Ensure that the batteries remain clean and dry: dirt and water can cause leaks, as a result of which battery capacity can be
reduced.
Clean the battery terminals and then grease them using acid-free Vaseline.
5.3 Tyres
To ensure that your scooter performs well, it is of great importance for the tyres to be kept at the right pressure.
Inflating the tyres
The tyres are equipped with a car tyre valve. Remove the caps from the valves before inflating the tyres. If the tyres are not
adequately inflated, the range of the scooter may be reduced and the tread may wear more quickly.
Warning
When inflating tyres, never exceed the maximum recommended tyre pressure which is stated on the tyres (2.5 bar front and 3.5
bar rear).
Never forget to replace the valve cap after inflating the tyres. The valve cap prevents dirt and sand from getting into the valve.
See the ‘Maintenance table’ regarding tyre checks.
The tools for the specific task are illustrated in the visual instructions.

non-functioning that are the consequence of improper or unprofessional use of the Product or the battery that is part of the

replaced without the permission of Handicare.
5. The warranties as mentioned in stipulations 1 through 3 also become null and void if what is involved is re-used by a new user
within the warranty period and that such re-use necessitates adaptations to the product and those adaptations are carried out
without the instructions and/or at the order of Handicare.
6. To retain rights under the warranties delineated above, the Customer must, in case of damage or other calamities, as rapidly
as possible contact Handicare and inform them as fully as possible. The possibility of taking recourse to the above-mentioned
warranty conditions becomes null and void for the Customer in any case after 20 workdays after the claim situation or the
calamity arises that was the reason for the recourse to the warranty.

repairs or reconditioning.

If your scooter is no longer needed or needs to be replaced, it can usually be taken back by your dealer. If this is not possible,
please contact your local authorities for the possibilities of recycling or an environmentally friendly way of disposing of the used
materials.
For the production of the scooter several plastics and metals have been used. The scooter also contains electronic components
that must go to electronic waste. Used batteries belong to chemical waste.
