All of the drive controls for the scooter are to be found on the Tiller Control Box (Photo

The Preset Speed Knob

Turning this knob to the left, “MIN”, reduces your available maximum speed. Turning it
to the right, “MAX”, increases the available maximum speed.

The Battery Gauge

This gives an approximation of battery charge and is illuminated for clarity.
The gauge is “RED” empty, to “YELLOW” charge required, to “GREEN” charged.
As the scooter moves over differing terrain, the Battery Gauge will dip up and down,

this is normal. For a more accurate indication, stop the scooter and note the reading. In

cold, damp weather the gauge will dip more often as the capacity and efficiency of all

batteries drops in such conditions.
TIP: If your battery gauge has gone into the “RED” section you can increase your

remaining range by reducing your maximum speed. Remember you MUST charge your

battery overnight as soon as you can to prevent battery damage.
