Q SAFETY INFORMATION
tric failure could result, which could
cause a dangerous loss of lights or
engine power.
Gasoline and exhaust gas
8GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAM-
MABLE:
9Always turn the engine off
when refueling.
9Take care not to spill any
gasoline on the engine or
exhaust system when refueling.
9Never refuel while smoking or
in the vicinity of an open flame.
8Never start the engine or let it run
for any length of time in a closed
area. The exhaust fumes are poi-
sonous and may cause loss of con-
sciousness and death within a
short time. Always operate your
scooter in an area that has adequate
ventilation.
8Always turn the engine off before
leaving the scooter unattended and
remove the key from the main
switch. When parking the scooter,
note the following:
9The engine and exhaustsystem may be hot, therefore,
park the scooter in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch these hot
areas.
9Do not park the scooter on a
slope or soft ground, otherwise
it may fall over.
9Do not park the scooter near a
flammable source (e.g., a
kerosene heater, or near an
open flame), otherwise it could
catch fire.
8If you should swallow any gasoline,
inhale a lot of gasoline vapor, or
allow gasoline to get into your eyes,
see your doctor immediately. If any
gasoline spills on your skin or cloth-
ing, immediately wash the affected
area with soap and water and
change your clothes.

Q QQ Q
Q SAFETY INFORMATION8Braking can be extremely difficult
on a wet road. Avoid hard braking,
because the scooter could slide.
Apply the brakes slowly when stop-
ping on a wet surface.
8Slow down as you approach a cor-
ner or turn. Once you have com-
pleted a turn, accelerate slowly.
8Be careful when passing parked
cars. A driver might not see you and
open a door in your path.
8Railroad crossings, streetcar rails,
iron plates on road construction
sites, and manhole covers become
extremely slippery when wet. Slow
down and cross them with caution.
Keep the scooter upright, otherwise
it could slide out from under you.
8The brake pads could get wet when
you wash the scooter. After wash-
ing the scooter, check the brakes
before riding.
8Always wear a helmet, gloves, trou-
sers (tapered around the cuff and
ankle so they do not flap), and a
bright colored jacket.
8Do not carry too much luggage on
the scooter. An overloaded scooter
is unstable.
