Safety Guidelines
The symbols below are used throughout this owner's manual and on the
scooter to identify warnings and important information. It is very important for
you to read them and understand them completely.
Indicates a hazardous situation that could result in
serious injury or death if it is not avoided.
Indicates a hazardous situation that could result in minor
or slight injury if it is not avoided.
Indicates a hazardous situation that could result in
damage to property if it is not avoided.
Recommendations and information for efcient,
trouble-free use.
The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility device
expert has properly tted the scooter to the user and has assisted the
prescribing health care professional and/or the authorized provider in the
instruction process for the use of the product.
There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the scooter
user will need to practice operating the scooter in the presence of a trained atten-
dant. A trained attendant can be dened as a family member or care professional
specially trained in assisting a scooter user in various daily living activities.
As you begin using your scooter during daily activities you will probably
encounter situations in which you will need some practice. Simply take your time
and you will soon be in full and condent control as you manoeuvre through door-
ways, on and off elevators, up and down ramps, and over
moderate terrain.
Additional general information can be found on the supplemental information
sheets and booklets included in your Owner’s Package.
Please fully read and review the information, and keep it readily available for
future reference.

Pre-Ride Safety Check
Get to know the feel of your scooter and its capabilities. We recommend that
you perform a safety check before each use to make sure your scooter operates
smoothly and safely.
Perform the following inspections prior to using your Travel Scooter:
Never drive the scooter with tiller lock in the locked
position.
Never exceed the maximum permissible load – see
Specications and never use the scooter to transport more
than one person.
Never drive the scooter under the inuence of medication or
alcohol.
Never attempt to get onto or off your scooter without rst
removing the key from the key switch. This will prevent the
scooter from moving if accidental throttle control lever con-
tact is made.
Check the condition of the tyres. Make sure they are not damaged or
excessively worn.
Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not cor-
roded.
Check all harness connections. Make sure they are secured properly.
Check the battery condition meter to ensure the batteries are fully
charged.
Ensure the manual freewheel lever is in drive mode before sitting on the
Travel Scooter.
If you discover a problem, contact Clearwell for assistance. Please refer to the
Contact Information on the rst page of this manual.
