STARTING TO DRIVE YOUR SCOOTER

First Time Use
Prior to using your Shoprider® Flagship ™ scooter for the first time, you must charge the
batteries fully (refer to Battery Charging Procedures). Charging may take up to 12 hours.
Charging the batteries completely prior to first time use will benefit battery efficiency and
extend battery life. Failure to do so may cause damage.

Getting Started

• Select a level area with plenty of space.

• Mount the scooter by pushing the arm rest upward out of the way and sliding onto the

seat.

• Adjust the tiller and seat as previously described.

Starting Scooter Movement

• Ensure that you are seated in a comfortable position.

• Turn the key to the on position.

• Your speed setting should be on 1 or 2.

• Squeeze your right hand lever and the scooter will move forward slowly. The harder

you squeeze, the faster the scooter goes but will only reach the speed level that has
been selected.

• Release the lever and the scooter will slowly come to a stop as the magnetic brake

automatically engages.

Steering
Steering the scooter is light and easy. When starting off ensure that you give a wide
clearance when turning so that the rear wheels clear any obstacle that you are passing.
When steering through limited spaces such as a doorway or when turning around, turn the
tiller handles where you want to go and apply power gently. The scooter will turn very
tightly, but will still move with complete stability as long as the speed is not too high.

Reversing
Before reversing ensure that the area behind is free from any hazards or obstructions.
Adjust your speed setting to a low setting before you move in reverse. Squeeze the left
hand lever, and steer wide of all corners and obstacles.

Dismounting
Before dismounting ensure that the key is turned to the off position. Dismount either sliding
off the seat or swivel the seat 90° turn.

CAUTION: Please ensure that care is exercised when mounting or dismounting the
scooter and that the tiller, seat back and foot rest are not used for support.
