SAFETY INFORMATION
EAU50653
Be a Responsible Owner
As the vehicle’s owner, you are respon-
sible for the safe and proper operation
of your scooter.
Scooters are single-track vehicles.
Their safe use and operation are de-
pendent upon the use of proper riding
techniques as well as the expertise of
the operator. Every operator should
know the following requirements before
riding this scooter.
He or she should:
Obtain thorough instructions from
a competent source on all aspects
of scooter operation.
Observe the warnings and mainte-
nance requirements in this Own-
er’s Manual.
Obtain qualified training in safe
and proper riding techniques.
Obtain professional technical ser-
vice as indicated in this Owner’s
Manual and/or when made neces-
sary by mechanical conditions.Safe Riding
Perform the pre-operation checks each
time you use the vehicle to make sure it
is in safe operating condition. Failure to
inspect or maintain the vehicle properly
increases the possibility of an accident
or equipment damage. See page 5-1
for a list of pre-operation checks.
This scooter is designed to carry
the operator only. No passengers.
The failure of motorists to detect
and recognize scooters in traffic is
the predominating cause of auto-
mobile/scooter accidents. Many
accidents have been caused by an
automobile driver who did not see
the scooter. Making yourself con-
spicuous appears to be very effec-
tive in reducing the chance of this
type of accident.
Therefore:
• Wear a brightly colored jacket.
• Use extra caution when you are
approaching and passing
through intersections, since in-
tersections are the most likely
places for scooter accidents to
occur.
• Ride where other motorists cansee you. Avoid riding in another
motorist’s blind spot.
Many accidents involve inexperi-
enced operators. In fact, many op-
erators who have been involved in
accidents do not even have a cur-
rent driver’s license.
• Make sure that you are qualified
and that you only lend your
scooter to other qualified opera-
tors.
• Know your skills and limits.
Staying within your limits may
help you to avoid an accident.
• We recommend that you prac-
tice riding your scooter where
there is no traffic until you have
become thoroughly familiar with
the scooter and all of its con-
trols.
Many accidents have been caused
by error of the scooter operator. A
typical error made by the operator
is veering wide on a turn due to ex-
cessive speed or undercornering
(insufficient lean angle for the
speed).
• Always obey the speed limit and
never travel faster than warrant-

If a problem is detected, the tripmeter/
odometer display is canceled and
“COOL” or “HEAT” flash.
When the temperature of the bat-
tery or control unit exceeds a spec-
ified temperature, “HEAT” flashes.
When the temperature of the bat-
tery falls below a specified temper-
ature, “COOL” flashes.
TIP
When the temperature of the bat-
tery exceeds a specified tempera-
ture, “HEAT” flashes and the
driving power is reduced to limit
the electric output from the battery,
but this is normal.
When the temperature of the bat-
tery falls below a specified temper-
ature, “COOL” flashes and the
driving power is reduced to limit
the electric output from the battery,
but this is normal.
If the vehicle is ridden for an ex-
tended period in high tempera-
tures, “HEAT” may flash and the
riding speed may be reduced.
If the vehicle is ridden after it has
been left in a hot place or under di-
rect sunlight, “HEAT” may flash
and the riding speed may be re-
duced.
If the vehicle is ridden after it has
been left in an excessively cold
place (less than 0 C), “COOL”

may be reduced.
When the battery level indicator
shows less than two segments, if
the vehicle is exposed to higher
temperatures, “COOL” may flash
and the riding speed may be re-
duced.
When riding on a long uphill
stretch, “HEAT” may flash and the
riding speed may be reduced.
When riding on a long uphill
stretch, the temperature of the
control unit may rise and “HEAT”
may flash. If you ride continually,
the operating status indicator
“RUN” goes off to protect the con-
trol unit and further riding may be
impossible, but this is not a mal-function.
The vehicle can be ridden when the op-
erating status indicator “RUN” appears
in the display, however riding speed
may be reduced. This is due to reduced
electric output from the battery be-
cause of high battery temperature.If the battery level indicator shows less
than two segments, or the electric out-
put from the battery is limited because
of the battery temperature, the riding
power is substantially reduced, but this
is not a malfunction.
When the battery and control unit have
reached their normal operating temper-
ature and the operating status indicator
“RUN” appears, the temperature warn-
ing display automatically changes back
to the tripmeter/odometer display.
If the operating status indicator “RUN”
does not appear, the vehicle cannot be
ridden.Turn the key to “OFF” and allow the
battery and control unit to cool down
before riding again.
TIPWhen the operating status indicator
“RUN” disappears and riding cannot be
continued, the temperature warning
display can be canceled by turning the
key to “OFF” and then back to “ON” af-
ter the battery and control unit havecooled down.
