CIRCUIT BREAKER
Located on the top corner of the rear cover is a circuit breaker/cut-out fuse. This
circuit breaker protrudes out of the rear cover for easy access. Major malfunctions
or overloads will trigger the fuse. If the scooter has lost power, check whether the
automatic cut-out fuse has been triggered. Press button downward to reset if
necessary.
If it has been triggered, it will prevent the scooter from further operation. To re-
start the scooter after the cut-out fuse has been reset, you must pull out the key
from the receptacle to re-set the system. If the breaker immediately triggers again,
you may have to wait to give the motor time to cool off.
Subsequently, if the breaker resets, take care to drive slowly and steadily, avoiding
steep obstacles and/or hills as much as possible.
NOTE: If the breaker continues to trigger after the motor has cooled down, there could be a
malfunction or overload somewhere in the electrical system. Please contact your dealer for
assistance should this occur.
